# Largest Series Product

Given a string of digits, calculate the largest product for a contiguous
substring of digits of length n.

For example, for the input `'1027839564'`, the largest product for a
series of 3 digits is 270 (9 * 5 * 6), and the largest product for a
series of 5 digits is 7560 (7 * 8 * 3 * 9 * 5).

Note that these series are only required to occupy *adjacent positions*
in the input; the digits need not be *numerically consecutive*.

For the input `'73167176531330624919225119674426574742355349194934'`,
the largest product for a series of 6 digits is 23520.

## Running Ceylon Tests

Before tests can be run, your code must be compiled via [`ceylon compile`](https://ceylon-lang.org/documentation/current/reference/tool/ceylon/subcommands/ceylon-compile.html).

We run tests with the [`ceylon test`](https://ceylon-lang.org/documentation/reference/tool/ceylon/subcommands/ceylon-test.html) command.

`ceylon test` expects a module name to run the tests on.
In the Ceylon track, each exercise has just a single module.

Therefore, you can run the tests with:

```bash
ceylon compile && ceylon test $(basename source/*)
```

## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
