🔴CHALLENGE🔴Only increasing↗ or decreasing↘ words!

Write a program in your favorite programming language that receives a string of words from users and outputs only those words whose characters are in increasing or decreading order. Example: input: acer is not a brand for old zoo boys output: acer is not a for old zoo As you may have noticed repeating a character is allowed in increasing and decreasing words. To make it simple, you can change the input to lawercase letters.

@Ferhat The resean is that the words "brand" and "boys" are neither increasing nor decreasing.

@Sayan your code isn't working well. I tried this: "acer is not a brand for old zoo boys" and got only "acer is not a for old zoo" and the words brand and boys are disappeared.
