| 10 | +--- |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +## Problem Description |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +Given an array of string `words`, return all strings in words that is a substring of another word. You can return the answer in any order. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +A substring is a contiguous sequence of characters within a string |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +### Examples |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +**Example 1:** |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +``` |
| 23 | +Input: words = ["mass","as","hero","superhero"] |
| 24 | +Output: ["as","hero"] |
| 25 | +Explanation: "as" is substring of "mass" and "hero" is substring of "superhero". |
| 26 | +["hero","as"] is also a valid answer. |
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | +**Example 2:** |
| 29 | +``` |
| 30 | +Input: words = ["leetcode","et","code"] |
| 31 | +Output: ["et","code"] |
| 32 | +Explanation: "et", "code" are substring of "leetcode". |
| 33 | +
|
| 34 | +``` |
| 35 | +### Constraints |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +- `1 <= words.length <= 100` |
| 38 | +- `1 <= words[i].length <= 30` |
| 39 | + |
