# Robot Name Manage robot factory settings. When robots come off the factory floor, they have no name. The first time you boot them up, 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 their name gets wiped. The next time you ask, it will respond with a new random name. The names must be random: they should not follow a predictable sequence. Random names means a risk of collisions. Your solution must ensure that every existing robot has a unique name. ## Rust Installation Refer to the [exercism help page][help-page] for Rust installation and learning resources. ## Writing the Code Execute the tests with: ```bash $ cargo test ``` All but the first test have been ignored. After you get the first test to pass, open the tests source file wich is located in the `tests` directory and remove the `#[ignore]` flag from the next test and get the tests to pass again. Each separate test is a function with `#[test]` flag above it. Continue, until you pass every test. If you wish to run all tests without editing the tests source file, use: ```bash $ cargo test -- --ignored ``` To run a specific test, for example `some_test`, you can use: ```bash $ cargo test some_test ``` If the specfic test is ignored use: ```bash $ cargo test some_test -- --ignored ``` To learn more about Rust tests refer to the [online test documentation][rust-tests] Make sure to read the [Modules](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/second-edition/ch07-00-modules.html) chapter if you haven't already, it will help you with organizing your files. ## Feedback, Issues, Pull Requests The [exercism/rust](https://github.com/exercism/rust) repository on GitHub is the home for all of the Rust exercises.
