/* | |
Given a lowercase string that has alphabetic characters only and no spaces, return the highest value of consonant substrings. Consonants are any letters of the alpahabet except "aeiou". | |
We shall assign the following values: a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, .... z = 26. | |
For example, for the word "zodiacs", let's cross out the vowels. We get: "z o d ia cs" | |
-- The consonant substrings are: "z", "d" and "cs" and the values are z = 26, d = 4 and cs = 3 + 19 = 22. The highest is 26. | |
solve("zodiacs") = 26 | |
For the word "strength", solve("strength") = 57 | |
-- The consonant substrings are: "str" and "ngth" with values "str" = 19 + 20 + 18 = 57 and "ngth" = 14 + 7 + 20 + 8 = 49. The highest is 57. | |
For C: do not mutate input. | |
More examples in test cases. Good luck! | |
