Hello and welcome to the X-Team programming challenge. Follow the instructions below to get your solution, and paste it back into the form where you registered.

You'll need to install nodejs to complete the task.

Don't worry if javascript is not your specialty, a basic understanding will be enough to get you through this first step.

The program in this challenge is a very simple messaging system. There is a database of messages, and users can read their messages one at a time.

To run the program there are 2 inputs you need:

• a username
• a hash of the last message you read (so you can read the next one)

Run the program like this:

node index.js <username> <hash>

To get the correct solution you must use the following inputs:

node index.js bigbird88 60b725f10c9c85c70d97880dfe8191b3

Copy the entire output of the program and paste it into the "Solution" field in the registration form, and you're done!

But wait! There are some bugs in the program that you'll need to fix first. Once you've fixed them the program will display some output like this:
