## Description
<section id='description'>
Return true if the string in the first element of the array contains all of the letters of the string in the second element of the array.
For example, <code>["hello", "Hello"]</code>, should return true because all of the letters in the second string are present in the first, ignoring case.
The arguments <code>["hello", "hey"]</code> should return false because the string "hello" does not contain a "y".
Lastly, <code>["Alien", "line"]</code>, should return true because all of the letters in "line" are present in "Alien".
