For lols, here's a wrong solution that returns the correct strings (bac, cab, ywxz)

function find_order(words) {
let letters = new Set()
for (const word of words) {
let characters = word.split('')
letters = new Set([...letters, ...characters])
}
return Array.from(letters).join('')
}

Obviously it doesn't solve anything :)

for alien dictionary, I believe they added extra test cases that makes this solution fail. I copy-pasted it over too
