+# Instructions
+
+Given any two lists `A` and `B`, determine if:
+
+- List `A` is equal to list `B`; or
+- List `A` contains list `B` (`A` is a superlist of `B`); or
+- List `A` is contained by list `B` (`A` is a sublist of `B`); or
+- None of the above is true, thus lists `A` and `B` are unequal
+
+Specifically, list `A` is equal to list `B` if both lists have the same values in the same order.
+List `A` is a superlist of `B` if `A` contains a sub-sequence of values equal to `B`.
+List `A` is a sublist of `B` if `B` contains a sub-sequence of values equal to `A`.
+
+Examples:
+
+- If `A = []` and `B = []` (both lists are empty), then `A` and `B` are equal
+- If `A = [1, 2, 3]` and `B = []`, then `A` is a superlist of `B`
+- If `A = []` and `B = [1, 2, 3]`, then `A` is a sublist of `B`
+- If `A = [1, 2, 3]` and `B = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]`, then `A` is a sublist of `B`
+- If `A = [3, 4, 5]` and `B = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]`, then `A` is a sublist of `B`
+- If `A = [3, 4]` and `B = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]`, then `A` is a sublist of `B`
+- If `A = [1, 2, 3]` and `B = [1, 2, 3]`, then `A` and `B` are equal
+- If `A = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]` and `B = [2, 3, 4]`, then `A` is a superlist of `B`
+- If `A = [1, 2, 4]` and `B = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]`, then `A` and `B` are unequal
+- If `A = [1, 2, 3]` and `B = [1, 3, 2]`, then `A` and `B` are unequal

+ * By adding type hints and enabling strict type checking, code can become

+ * By default, type declarations are non-strict, which means they will attempt
+ * to change the original type to match the type specified by the
+ * type-declaration.
+ *
+ * In other words, if you pass a string to a function requiring a float,

+ *
+ * To enable strict mode, a single declare directive must be placed at the top
+ * of the file.
+ * This means that the strictness of typing is configured on a per-file basis.
