'''[Assignment] Let Fix This

You have given an input string s and an array a contain number of strings. Create an program that return all the string that has s as prefix and suffix.

Input :: s = he ,a = [heat,heal,hair,the]
Outputs :: Prefix : heat, heal
         Suffix : the

Presumption: s is shorter than the elements of a

'''

a = ["heat", "heal", "hair", "the"]

    for x in range(0, len(s)):  # for every character in s:
        if s[x] == a[i][x]:     # characters are the same
            if x + 1 == len(s):
                print(a[i]+" ", end="")
        else:
            break

        if j == i[len(i) - counter]:    # when all chars of a have been checked
