This change: - Adds more detail to the chars concept and introduction to try help students get closer to the intended solution the first time. During mentoring, it was noticed there were solutions using String.replace, which was not intended. - Replace Unicode link from chars concept. In 02d488e the concept was updated to remove Unicode. However, this link seems to have been forgotten. - Replace "if-else-statements" with "strings" as a prerequisite for squeaky clean. The solution seems to require obtaining the characters in the String and looping over them. "if-else-statements" is also a prerequisite for "arrays", so students will still have to "if-else-statements" before squeaky clean.
