Process

The interviewer called in and asked for background and a description of a recent project. It lasted about 15 minutes. The questions were hard (lots of details to attend to), and 30 minutes is not easy to finish without bugs. At the end, she asked me if I had any questions. The interview finished 5 minutes late, and she was nice and did not stop me immediately after 45 minutes.

Questions

Given a long string and a width, parse the string and return an array list containing strings that are shorter than or equal to the given width. If multiple spaces are left, split them equally.
