+ *
+ * A sentence is a list of words that are separated by a single space with no leading or trailing 
+ * spaces. For example, "Hello World", "HELLO", "hello world hello world" are all sentences. Words 
+ * consist of only uppercase and lowercase English letters.
+ * 
+ * Two sentences sentence1 and sentence2 are similar if it is possible to insert an arbitrary sentence 
+ * (possibly empty) inside one of these sentences such that the two sentences become equal. For 
+ * example, sentence1 = "Hello my name is Jane" and sentence2 = "Hello Jane" can be made equal by 
+ * inserting "my name is" between "Hello" and "Jane" in sentence2.
+ * 
+ * Given two sentences sentence1 and sentence2, return true if sentence1 and sentence2 are similar. 
+ * Otherwise, return false.
+ * 
+ * Example 1:
+ * 
+ * Input: sentence1 = "My name is Haley", sentence2 = "My Haley"
+ * Output: true
+ * Explanation: sentence2 can be turned to sentence1 by inserting "name is" between "My" and "Haley".
+ * 
+ * Example 2:
+ * 
+ * Input: sentence1 = "of", sentence2 = "A lot of words"
+ * Output: false
+ * Explanation: No single sentence can be inserted inside one of the sentences to make it equal to the 
+ * other.
+ * 
+ * Example 3:
+ * 
+ * Input: sentence1 = "Eating right now", sentence2 = "Eating"
+ * Output: true
+ * Explanation: sentence2 can be turned to sentence1 by inserting "right now" at the end of the 
+ * sentence.
+ * 
+ * Example 4:
+ * 
+ * Input: sentence1 = "Luky", sentence2 = "Lucccky"
+ * Output: false
+ * 
+ * Constraints:
+ * 
+ * 	1 <= sentence1.length, sentence2.length <= 100
+ * 	sentence1 and sentence2 consist of lowercase and uppercase English letters and spaces.
+ * 	The words in sentence1 and sentence2 are separated by a single space.
