Hints

If you're having trouble, here are some tips to ensure you're calculating the checksum the same way we did:

  • It's an MD5 checksum
  • The answers are all lower case
  • Remember to remove new lines when checking checksums!

On *nix/OSX systems, you should get the correct checksum with:

md5 -s "YOUR_ANSWER"

If you'd rather just use an online tool, this should suffice
