Microservice for Bob
******************************************
Uses ZeroMQ to communicate between server and client .py files.
Client file sends a stringified int as a request.
Server file receives request and returns that number of random numbers as a stringified array.

How to Install:
Project is run locally.
Dependencies:
pyzmq (installed via "pip install pyzmq")
******************************************
How to Run:
Run server.py
Run client.py
Use client.py to pass json object containing an array with the following three values:
- number of random numbers to return,
- value lower limit (optional, default=1),
- upper limit (optional, default=100);
Expects back b"{array of random numbers}" json object (which fits the requested parameters)
Example of request:
...
request_details = [num_vals, lower_limit, upper_limit + 1]
request_data = json.dumps(request_details)
socket.send_string(request_data)
server.py loads json data and generates the number of random numbers (between the upper and
lower limits) requested, sending them as an array in a json object to client.py
Example of returned string:
Received reply [ [26, 44, 74, 49, 76, 37, 91, 84, 100, 47] ]
