Generate random keystroke

E

For each file, push sentences where first chracter is an E to an array

Generate random keystroke

I

For each file, push sentences where second character is I to an array

Continue until random keystroke has no matches

match = whatever the longest string we've got so far ("EI")

Find new match

if match.length > longestMatch do
    longestMatchLength = match.length

end

#To run server

export FLASK_APP=server.py

$ python -m flask run

#export FLASK_APP=controller.py #export FLASK_ENV=development #flask run

created a shell file to run all above commands #to run the app use bash start.sh

Things that need solving are:

• issue of paraller process: i.e server to response with longest match whilst monkey typed matched keystrokes keep redefining longest match.
• Theres seems to be issue with randomness as matched words keep on re apearing
