Coding problem1

After self-introduction, I was asked behavioral questions for 5 minutes on different situations like what would you do if you had a conflict with your teammate. 
Later I was asked to solve the group anagram question. I was asked to write the code on an IDE and then dry run through the code with proper explanation.

1. Group Anagrams

You have been given an array/list of strings 'inputStr'. You are supposed to return the strings as groups of anagrams such that strings belonging to a particular group are anagrams of one another.

An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase. We can generalize this in string processing by saying that an anagram of a string is another string with the same quantity of each character in it, in any order.

Note:
The order in which the groups and members of the groups are printed does not matter.
For example:
inputStr = {"eat","tea","tan","ate","nat","bat"}
Here {“tea”, “ate”,” eat”} and {“nat”, “tan”} are grouped as anagrams. Since there is no such string in “inputStr” which can be an anagram of “bat”, thus, “bat” will be the only member in its group.
