Something that interested me this week

This week I started working on some Roku development, which has been quite the trip so far. Roku uses a language called BrightScript exclusively for its apps.  At first I wasn't a fan I admit (I kept looking up, "why is BrightScript a thing" frustratedly, and found a couple Quora answers that somewhat answered that), but once you get the hang of it, the language is pretty straightforward and is really built for Roku, so there aren't many workarounds you have to deal with to get a well-functioning app going.  If you have some content you want to show off on Roku, it's an interesting platform and I recommend checking it out purely because it's kind of weird (which makes it kind of cool).

Interview question of the week

Write a function where given a pattern string like "ABCCA" and an input string like "redyellowbluebluered", return true if and only if there's a one to one mapping of letters in the pattern to substrings of the input.

> patternMatch('ABA', 'keyboardkey')
true
> patternMatch('AA', 'fishyfish')
false
