Converts a given string into an array of words

String to Words in Javascript.js

// Replaced the split method with the match method, which uses a regular expression to split the string into an array of words.
// Also removed the filter(Boolean) call since the match method already returns an array with only the matched words.

/**
 * Returns an array of all words in a given string that match a given pattern.
 *
 * @param {string} str - The input string to search for words.
 * @param {RegExp} pattern - The pattern to match words against. Defaults to /[a-zA-Z-]+/g.
 * @return {Array} - An array of words that match the given pattern.

function words(str, pattern = /[a-zA-Z-]+/g) {
