Create a module that will standardise non-standard input. For example, slang, abbreviations.
Some examples from English
- Extra space: "he he" (hehe)
- Spacing and hyphen variation: no-one, noone, no one
- Optional hyphen: re-integrate, reintegrate
- Missing apostrophe: shes thinking about it
- Non-standard capitalisation: im thinking about it
- Abbreviated words: fav,
- Emoticons: :)
Coding challenge
Tasks
