Php-string / break word

 I give you a string and a dictionary of words, return true if the string can be split into words to be found in the dictionary, else return false. Example: Dictionary is {i, love, indian, food, spicy}. So, if I pass a string ilovespicy or indianfoodspicy, what would be the outcome? Example: Dictionary is {wicket, bats, man, keeper}. So, if I pass a string wicketkeeper or batswicket, what would be the outcome?

I don't have much experience with php. But what I would try is #1 Pick a word from the dictionary #2 Compare it with the similar length of the string #3 if that's true cut the rest of the string and compare it with rest of the library if match found or not go to step 5 #4 if false go to step 1 #5 print whether the result is true or false.

Why don't you try using regular expressions? [ /.*my.*/, /.*dictionary.*/ ] for each regexp I'm the array check if the string matches the pattern if so, return true

noname I was thinking about them. But it would be too easy if you use regexp.😂😂lol. I think the challenge isn't meant to test regexp use.😊
