/***************************************************************************************
*
* Given an arbitrary ransom note string and another string containing
* letters from all the magazines, write a function that will return true
* if the ransom
* note can be constructed from the magazines ; otherwise, it will return
* false.
*
* Each letter in the magazine string can only be used once in your
* ransom note.
*
* Note:
* You may assume that both strings contain only lowercase letters.
*
* canConstruct("a", "b") -> false
* canConstruct("aa", "ab") -> false
* canConstruct("aa", "aab") -> true
