Is Anagram
Explore how to identify anagrams by normalizing strings and applying two approaches: sorting for simplicity and a dictionary-based method for efficiency. Understand the implementation to check if two strings have the same characters with optimized Python code.
We'll cover the following...
In this lesson, we will determine whether two strings are anagrams of each other.
Simply put, an anagram is when two strings can be written using the same letters.
Examples:
"rail safety" = "fairy tales"
"roast beef" = "eat for BSE"
It sometimes changes a proper noun or personal name into a sentence:
"William Shakespeare" = "I am a weakish speller"
"Madam Curie" = "Radium came"
We will write two solutions to this problem. The first one will be concise, while the second one will be more robust and efficient. Both of these approaches involve normalizing the input string, which means converting them into lowercase and removing all the characters which are not alphanumeric. ...
