Challenge X - Write Your Own X

Late to the party (weekend build) but we roll. Implementing codingchallenges.fyi in Go.

Note: Doing this in addition to the day work to practice Go pretty much. Okay, maybe not. UNIX design principles are top-notch, so can learn a thing or two.

1. Building My Own Unix's wc

• Implemented a version of Unix's wc command in Go.
• Optimized for performance and error handling.

2. JSON Parser with Array Support

• Added functionality to a JSON parser to fully support JSON arrays.
• Handled array elements and nested arrays.

3. Huffman Coding Compression Tool

• Developed a CLI tool for lossless data compression using Priority Queue (Min Heap) and Depth-First Search (DFS) algorithms.
• Implemented compression and decompression functions.

4. CLI Cut Tool

• Implemented efficient field extraction using Go's string manipulation capabilities.
• Utilized flag package to parse command-line arguments and provide flexible field selection options.

5. Load Balancer

• Load balancer distributes requests using a round-robin algorithm to evenly distribute load among active servers.
• Health check mechanism periodically checks the health status of backend servers and removes unhealthy servers from the pool to prevent service disruptions.
