+/**
+ * @description
+ * Given two strings, `source` and `target`, determine if it's possible to make `source` equal
+ * to `target` You can perform the following operations on the string `source`:
+ * 1. Capitalize zero or more of `source`'s lowercase letters.
+ * 2. Delete all the remaining lowercase letters in `source`.
+ *
+ * Time Complexity: (O(|source|*|target|)) where `|source|` => length of string `source`
+ *
+ * @param {String} source - The string to be transformed.
+ * @param {String} target - The string we want to transform `source` into.
+ * @returns {Boolean} - Whether the transformation is possible.
+ * @see https://www.hackerrank.com/challenges/abbr/problem - Related problem on HackerRank.
