/**
* Hamming Distance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance
*
*
* Hamming distance is a metric for comparing two binary data strings.
*
* While comparing two binary strings of equal length, Hamming distance
* is the number of bit positions in which the two bits are different.
* The Hamming distance between two strings, a and b is denoted as d(a,b)
*/
/**
* @param {string} a
* @param {string} b
* @return {number}
*/

if (a.length !== b.length) {
throw new Error('Strings must be of the same length')
}

if (a[i] !== b[i]) {
distance += 1
}
