Common Permutation
Given two strings of lowercase letters, a and b, print the longest string x of lowercase letters such
that there is a permutation of x that is a subsequence of a and there is a permutation of x that is a
subsequence of b.
Input

input file line 1 and 2 is a set of input, line 3 and 4 is a set of input and so on. The first line of a pair
contains a and the second contains b. Each string is on a separate line and consists of at most 1000
lowercase letters.

For each set of input, output a line containing x. If several x satisfy the criteria above, choose the first
one in alphabetical order.
