+# Instructions
+
+Manage robot factory settings.
+
+When a robot comes off the factory floor, it has no name.
+
+The first time you turn on a robot, a random name is generated in the format of two uppercase letters followed by three digits, such as RX837 or BC811.
+
+Every once in a while we need to reset a robot to its factory settings, which means that its name gets wiped.
+The next time you ask, that robot will respond with a new random name.
+
+The names must be random: they should not follow a predictable sequence.
+Using random names means a risk of collisions.
+Your solution must ensure that every existing robot has a unique name.
