Given two String inputs, return true if the first five characters of the two Strings are the same. Return false if the two Strings have different first five characters. Note that some of the input Strings will have less than five characters; return false if that happens.


HINT

This method requires the use of the length(), substring() and equals() methods of Strings.

apcsaStringsFirstFiveEqual("abcdefg", "abcde Blah blah") → true
apcsaStringsFirstFiveEqual("abc", "abc") → false
apcsaStringsFirstFiveEqual("", "Not equal") → false

...Save, Compile, Run (ctrl-enter)

public boolean apcsaStringsFirstFiveEqual(String one, String two) { }
