TASK #1 > Isomorphic Strings
Submitted by: Mohammad S Anwar
You are given two strings $A and $B.

Write a script to check if the given strings are Isomorphic. Print 1 if they
are otherwise 0.

Example 1:
Input: $A = "abc"; $B = "xyz"
Output: 1
Example 2:
Input: $A = "abb"; $B = "xyy"
Output: 1
Example 3:
Input: $A = "sum"; $B = "add"
Output: 0
