--description--

Given two strings, determine if they are anagrams of each other (contain the same characters in any order).

• Ignore casing and white space.

--hints--

areAnagrams("listen", "silent") should return true.

assert.isTrue(areAnagrams("listen", "silent"));

areAnagrams("School master", "The classroom") should return true.

assert.isTrue(areAnagrams("School master", "The classroom"));

areAnagrams("A gentleman", "Elegant man") should return true.

assert.isTrue(areAnagrams("A gentleman", "Elegant man"));

areAnagrams("Hello", "World") should return false.

assert.isFalse(areAnagrams("Hello", "World"));

areAnagrams("apple", "banana") should return false.

assert.isFalse(areAnagrams("apple", "banana"));

areAnagrams("cat", "dog") should return false.

assert.isFalse(areAnagrams("cat", "dog"));
