Simple Martian Aliens implementation

Martian Aliens

How to run

• Input all instructions into input.txt
• nvm use
• npm install or yarn install
• npm start or yarn start

Testing

• npm test or yarn test

Notes:

• Using babel for jest due to my use of the spread operator - didn't want to babelify actual execution hence the const { .. } = require('..') instead of import .. from ..

With more time I would have:

• Implemented end-to-end tests
• Written more unit tests (specifically lost state ones)
• Refactored the logic to chunk the instructions (not hard coded to a size split)
• Used constants for orientation i.e. const Orientation.North = 'N' instead of just a string.
