Skill Level: Beginner
Time Limit: 20-30 minutes

Installation

This challenge utilizes RSpec. You may have to install bundler.

  • gem install bundler
  • run bundle install when in the projects main folder "ParserChallenge1"
  • Run the tests with bundle exec rspec word_in_string_spec.rb -f d

Instructions

Does the word exist in the string? Write a method word_in_string? that will detect if a word is in a string. The details are in the documentation below.

The output of rspec is also the documentation:

word_in_string?
  returns symbols :yes and :no
    should return :no for word_in_string?('grow', 'growler')
    should return :yes for word_in_string?('grow', 'miracle grow')
  should detect whole words; e.g.:
    should detect 'book' in 'book_shelf'
    should detect 'book' in 'note_book_shelf'
    should detect 'book' in 'note_book'
    should detect 'book' in 'note_book-'
    should detect 'cat' in 'bodega-cat'
    should detect 'cat' in 'bodega cat'
  should not count words within words; e.g.:
    should not detect 'book' in 'bookshelf'
    should not detect 'book' in 'notebook'
    should not detect 'lap' in 'lapaz'
    should not detect 'apa' in 'lapaz'
    should not detect 'cat' in 'c a t'
