## Background informationThis question is inspired by `Answer Smash` from the BBC's game show `Richard Osman's House of Games`. Basically, participants have to "smash" the name of the picture and an answer to a question together to make a "word". For example, if the picture is `orlando bloom` (an English actor) and the answer to the question is `bloomingdale's` (a US department store):
<center><img src="figs/answer_smash.png" width="400"/></center> <p></p>
then the correct answer is `orlando bloomingdale's` with the part `bloom` appearing at the back of `orlando bloom` (first answer) and at the front of `bloomingdale's` (second answer).

## Instructions
1. In (src/answer_smash.py), write the function definition for `answer_smash()`, which takes 2 `str` as arguments and returns the smashed word (`str`) if two given words can be smashed together. If not, the function returns `None`.
**Note**
* About "argument" and "returning" values:
* You should not use `input()` or `print()` in your answer
* Remember:
* "Arguments" are the values that are passed to a function. Do not confuse "arguments" with the `input()` function, which is a function used to request users of a program to type in a value on a console
* "Return value" is the value to return when the function call is evaluated. Do not confuse "return value" with printout generated by `print()`
* If you are not sure how to write a function definition that takes "arguments" and "return" some value, please have a look at, for example, Exercise 3.2 of the exercises for self-study (at the back of the lecture notes)
* Remember to include an _abstract_ function docstring inside the function definition
* Some more specifications related to the question:
* The two words provided as arguments, and the smashed "words" do not have to be proper English words
* Two words can be smashed together only if there is any overlapping between the back of the first word and the beginning of the second word
* Always smash the words with the largest overlapping
2. Ensure your function works as intended by calling the functions with different arguments (like the ones in the `Examples` section). Please note down at least 5 function calls that you have tried, their expected return values, and the actual return values. You should consider different scenarios, for example, the two words cannot smash, the two words are the same, the words have some overlapping, etc
* Function calls that you have tried: _________________
* Expected return values: _________________
* Actual return values: _________________
**Note**
* When submitting the `answer_smash.py`, it should only contain the function definition of `answer_smash()`
* Please remove any function calls you tried from the `answer_smash.py` file before you submit your work

## Function argument assumptions
For simplicity, we assume:
* When calling the function, the given arguments are always string in lowercase, but they can have some non-letter characters
* For the overlapping part, it has to be matched exactly (including the whitespace, punctuation marks, numbers, etc.)
* Assume the given words do not start or end with whitespaces like spaces or newline characters

## Examples
Example function calls and the corresponding return values:
```
>>> answer_smash('orlando bloom', "bloomingdale's")
"orlando bloomingdale's"
>>> answer_smash('data', 'science')
>>> answer_smash('guacamole', 'leapfrog')
'guacamoleapfrog'
```
Below shows you some more examples of how words should be smashed together, and the corresponding return values:
| first argument| second argument|overlapping part| Return value |
|-----------------|------------------|----------------|--------------------|
| `'programming'` | `'ram'` | | `None` |
| `'data'` | `'science'` | | `None` |
| `'guacamole'` | `'leapfrog'` | `'le'` | `'guacamoleapfrog'`|
|`'orlando bloom'`|`"bloomingdale's"`| `'bloom'` |`"orlando bloomingdale's"` |
Some (even) more examples:
| first argument | second argument |overlapping part| Return value |
|----------------|-----------------|----------------|--------------|
| `'abcdef'` | `'efg'` | `'ef'` | `'abcdefg'`|
| `'abc!ef'` | `'!efg'` | `'!ef'` | `'abc!efg'`|
| `'abcd'` | `'abcd'` | `'abcd'` | `'abcd'` |
| `'abcab'` | `'bc'` | `'b'` | `'abcabc'` |
| `'cababa'` | `'babadd'` | `'baba'` | `'cababadd'` |
| `'abcab'` | `'ca'` | | `None` |
| `'abcd ef'` | `'def'` | | `None` |
| `"abcd'ef"` | `'d!ef'` | | `None` |
If there is nothing under the `overlapping part`, it means the corresponding two words cannot be smashed together. Notice "overlapping part" only includes the overlapping between the back of the first word and the beginning of the second word Here is the Python function answer_smash() that you can use to solve this problem:
def answer_smash(first_word, second_word):
\"\"\"
This function takes two strings as arguments and returns the smashed word if two given words can be smashed together.
If not, the function returns None.
Args:
first_word (str): The first word to be smashed.
second_word (str): The second word to be smashed.
Returns:
str: The smashed word if two given words can be smashed together. If not, return None.
\"\"\"
for i in range(len(first_word), -1, -1):
if first_word == second_word[:len(first_word)]:
return first_word + second_word):]
return None
Here are some function calls that you can try:
print(answer_smash('orlando bloom', \"bloomingdale's\"))# Expected: \"orlando bloomingdale's\"
print(answer_smash('data', 'science'))# Expected: None
print(answer_smash('guacamole', 'leapfrog'))# Expected: 'guacamoleapfrog'
print(answer_smash('programming', 'ram'))# Expected: None
print(answer_smash('abcdef', 'efg'))# Expected: 'abcdefg'
Please note that the function answer_smash() should be the only content in your answer_smash.py file. Remove any function calls before you submit your work.

我写了一个 answer_smash 函数，用于将两个单词拼接在一起，如果第一个单词的末尾与第二个单词的开头有重叠的部分。函数接受两个字符串作为参数，并返回拼接后的字符串。如果没有重叠部分，则返回 None 。
函数的实现很简单。我们只需要检查第一个单词的末尾字符是否与第二个单词的开头字符相同。如果相同，我们将第一个单词和第二个单词的剩余部分拼接在一起并返回结果。如果不同，我们返回 None 。
以下是一些示例函数调用及其对应的返回值：
print(answer_smash('orlando bloom', "bloomingdale's"))# 输出："orlando bloomingdale's"
print(answer_smash('data', 'science'))# 输出：None
print(answer_smash('guacamole', 'leapfrog'))# 输出：'guacamoleapfrog'
请注意，函数只返回拼接后的字符串，而不会打印结果。 Function definition:
def answer_smash(str1, str2):
"""
Combine two strings if there is any overlapping between the back of the first string and the beginning of the second string.
Args:
str1 (str): the first input string.
str2 (str): the second input string.
Returns:
str: combined string or None if the two given strings cannot be combined.
"""
combined = str1 + str2
length_1, length_combined = len(str1), len(combined)
# Check if the last n characters of str1 matches the starting of str2
for n in range(length_1, 0, -1):
if combined == str1[:n]:
return combined[:length_1-n] + str2
return None
