find-by-words
A solution for finding words started by a string. It works well on both front-end and back-end.
How does it work?
This implementation is inspired by the binary search algorithm. Like the famous algorithm, this solution uses the divide-and-conquer strategy and when it finds the first item, it searches for items on the left and right, stopping the loop when the first attempt fails.
