+*  parameter being passed and return the string true if the characters a and b are     *
+*  separated by exactly 3 places anywhere in the string at least once                  *
+*  (ie. "lane borrowed" would result in true because there is exactly three characters *
+*  between a and b). Otherwise return the string false.                                *
