An anagram is a rearrangement of letters to form a new word: for example `"owns"` is an anagram of `"snow"`.

A word is _not_ its own anagram: for example, `"stop"` is not an anagram of `"stop"`.

Note that some language tracks may include null-like values in the input array, and the way these values are represented varies by track.

A shipment of emergency supplies has arrived, but there's a problem.
4+
To protect from damage, the items — flashlights, first-aid kits, blankets — are packed inside boxes, and some of those boxes are nested several layers deep inside other boxes!
5+
6+
To be prepared for an emergency, everything must be easily accessible in one box.
7+
Can you unpack all the supplies and place them into a single box, so they're ready when needed most?
