@JoshDevHub Would you mind taking a look at this please?

Thank you for making this issue @Punith1117 You're absolutely correct about this. I think you can fix it by finding two strings that do yield the same index under the given hashing algorithm.

Since you indicated you'd like to work on this issue, I'll assign you. This same issue exists in the Ruby version of this lesson. It'd be great if you could make the same changes there. Don't worry, you shouldn't have to know any Ruby to be able to do this. Let me know if you have any questions!
