This repository contains Node.JS solution to The Friendly Words Challenge.

Two words are considered “friendly” if there exists a one to one mapping of letters between the two.

For instance…

GAGA and BOBO are friendly because mapping G<->B and A<->O would make them the same.

HHHH and BOBO are not friendly. Neither are JKKJ and JKKJJ.

This list…

• LALALA
• XOXOXO
• GCGCGC
• HHHCCC
• BBBMMM
• EGONUH
• HHRGOE
