for(let i = target.length; i > 0; i-- ){
  let st = str.length - target.length;
  let t = i - target.length;
  if(str[st] === target[t]); // there is a problem with this compare
    console.log(`${str[st]} was equal to ${target[t]}`)
    // OUTPUT: r was equal to n 
    // This is superConfusing
    count++;
}
return count === target.length ? true : false;
}
