### isAnagram
|
|
|
|
Checks if a string is an anagram of another string (case-insensitive, ignores spaces, punctuation and special characters).
|
|
|
|
Use `String.toLowerCase()`, `String.replace()` with an appropriate regular expression to remove unnecessary characters, `String.split('')`, `Array.sort()` and `Array.join('')` on both strings to normalize them, then check if their normalized forms are equal.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const isAnagram = (str1, str2) => {
|
|
const normalize = str => str.toLowerCase().replace(/[^a-z0-9]/gi, '').split('').sort().join('');
|
|
return normalize(str1) === normalize(str2);
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
isAnagram('iceman', 'cinema'); // true
|
|
```
