Extra spaces in names counts as a misspelling #122

Open owenstone opened 2 years ago

owenstone commented 2 years ago

Seems a bit harsh that an extra space between words fails to be recognized. Example: "Saint Vincent and the Grenadines" (with two spaces between the words "Vincent" & "and" wasn't recognized and produced the "Invalid guess" response.

Expected: Extra whitespace where some whitespace is expected should be recognized as a valid entry.
