Tests whether all the words are contained in text

The words can be in any order and may appear more than once.

Example 1:

When used in the following Stack expression it returns a value of type Boolean: true.

Tests whether any of the words are contained in the text

Only one of the words needs to match and it may appear more than once.

example-1

Example 1:

When used in the following Stack expression it returns a complex Boolean type of default value:

true

with the following fields:

• match of type String .

> has_any_word("The Quick Brown Fox", "fox quick")
%{"__value__" => true, "match" => "Quick Fox"}

When used as an expression in text, prepend it with an @:

> "... @has_any_word("The Quick Brown Fox", "fox quick") ..."
"true"

iex> import ExUnit.Assertions
iex> result = Expression.evaluate_block!(

example-2

Example 2:

When used in the following Stack expression it returns a complex Boolean type of default value:

false

with the following fields:

%{"__value__" => false, "match" => nil}

When used as an expression in text, prepend it with an @:

Both text values are trimmed of surrounding whitespace, but otherwise matching is strict without any tokenization.
