the input string can be of any case. your function does not handle cases where a character is uppercase and needs to be converted to lowercase
Thanks!

With the infinite variety of sentences you could write for your examples, why would you pick a sentence like your second one here?
At least in the USA that comes across as really racist and offensive.
I naively didn’t read the test cases when I created the Ruby translation and simply copied and paste them, sorry. I have now removed the last test case from the Ruby translation.
It's still on the JavaScript version
@tachyonlabs,
Since the statement
"colored teens cant Be successful in tech"is deemed highly offensive, passing it intospongeMemeactually mocks it which means that the author does not agree with that statement (which is a good thing as I'm a native Hongkonger).Hope this addresses your concern :)
Cheers, donaldsebleung
I can understand how the meme itself pokes fun of the sentence, but the sentence in of itself is racist at a minimum, regardless of context.
Like @tachyonlabs notes, please do consider changing it (Javascript) to virtually anything else, and it'd be less offensive.
Here are a few examples, I just Googled random English sentences: -What would you do if you saw a man from another planet -She spent many days knitting a sweater for him -Just looking at some books on how to learn English
I respectfully disagree, and this is also why I preserved this test case in the C# version as well. The context does matter, and as @donaldsebleung has pointed out it can be (and likely was meant to be) interpreted as making fun of people who would say a statement.
Because of this, I don't think there is currently ground to arbitrate that it is racist and ask the author to change his original spec.
Approved.
Ruby translation, please check and approve :-)
