Parseltongue

by Helen Yu tags: strings, validation, regex

Summary

Hermione has come up with a precise formula for determining whether or not a phrase was ssspoken by a parssseltongue (a reference from the Harry Potter universe; the language of ssserpents and those who can converse with them). Each word in a sssentence must contain either: At least 2 instances of the letter "s" (i.e. must be together ss), or... Zero instanc

Instructions

Hermione has come up with a precise formula for determining whether or not a phrase was ssspoken by a parssseltongue (a reference from the Harry Potter universe; the language of ssserpents and those who can converse with them).

Each word in a sssentence must contain either:

  1. At least 2 instances of the letter "s" (i.e. must be together ss), or...
  2. Zero instances of the letter "s".

Examples

isParselTongue("Sshe ssselectss to eat that apple. ") ➞ true

isParselTongue("She ssselects to eat that apple. ") ➞ false
// "She" only contains one "s".

isParselTongue("Beatrice samples lemonade") ➞ false
// While "samples" has 2 instances of "s", they are not together.

isParselTongue("You ssseldom sssspeak sso boldly, ssso messmerizingly.") ➞ true

Notes

There should be no words with only one instance of the letter "s" (see example #2).
