--description--

Given two integers, the par for a golf hole and the number of strokes a golfer took on that hole, return the golfer's score using golf terms.

Return:

• "Hole in one!" if it took one stroke.
• "Eagle" if it took two strokes less than par.
• "Birdie" if it took one stroke less than par.
• "Par" if it took the same number of strokes as par.
• "Bogey" if it took one stroke more than par.
• "Double bogey" if took two strokes more than par.

--hints--

golfScore(3, 3) should return "Par".

assert.equal(golfScore(3, 3), "Par");

golfScore(4, 3) should return "Birdie".

assert.equal(golfScore(4, 3), "Birdie");

golfScore(3, 1) should return "Hole in one!".

assert.equal(golfScore(3, 1), "Hole in one!");

golfScore(5, 7) should return "Double bogey".

assert.equal(golfScore(5, 7), "Double bogey");

golfScore(4, 5) should return "Bogey".

assert.equal(golfScore(4, 5), "Bogey");

golfScore(5, 3) should return "Eagle".

assert.equal(golfScore(5, 3), "Eagle");

--solutions--

  const diff = strokes - par;

  if (diff === -2) return "Eagle";
  if (diff === -1) return "Birdie";
  if (diff === 0) return "Par";
  if (diff === 1) return "Bogey";
  if (diff === 2) return "Double bogey";
