title: How to check whether two words are anagrams python
body: <p>I'm dealing with a simple problem:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>checking if two strings are anagrams.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I wrote the simple code that can check whether two strings, such as 
  'abcd' and 'dcba', are anagrams, but I have no idea what to do with more complex ones, like "Astronomer" and "Moon starter."</p>
  
  <pre><code>line1 = input('Enter the first word: ')
  line2 = input('Enter the second word: ')
  
  def deleteSpaces(s):
      s_new = s.replace(" ","")
      return s_new
  
  
  def anagramSolution2(s1,s2):
      alist1 = list(deleteSpaces(s1))
      alist2 = list(deleteSpaces(s2))
  
      print(alist1)
      print(alist2)
  
      alist1.sort()
      alist2.sort()
  
      pos = 0
      matches = True
  
      while pos &lt; len(deleteSpaces(s1)) and matches:
          if alist1[pos]==alist2[pos]:
              pos = pos + 1
          else:
              matches = False
  
      return matches
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Firstly I thought that the problem lies in working with spaces, but then I understood that my algorithm doesn't work if the strings are not the same size.</p>
  
  <p>I have no idea what to do in that case.</p>
  
  <p>Here I found a beautiful solution, but it doesn't work either:</p>
  
  <pre><code>def anagrams(s1,s2):
      return [False, True][sum([ord(x) for x in s1]) == sum([ord(x) for x in s2])]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I run this function and test it on two strings, I'll get such output:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Examples:
  
  First Word: apple
  Second Word: pleap
  
  output: True
  
  First Word: Moon starter
  Second Word: Astronomer
  
  output: False //however it should should be True because this words are anagrams 
  </code></pre>
