Robots

Trying and model the real world in code.

Your are a developer inside a robot factory. Your task is to manage robot settings. Here are the rules:

• When robots come off the factory floor, they have no name.

• The first time you boot them up, a random name is generated in the format of two uppercase letters followed by three digits, such as RX837 or BC811.

• Every once in a while we need to reset a robot to its factory settings, which means that their name gets wiped. The next time you ask, it will respond with a new random name.
