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
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'
