# Series
Given a string of digits, output all the contiguous substrings of length `n` in
that string.
For example, the string "49142" has the following 3-digit series:
- 491
- 914
- 142
And the following 4-digit series:
- 4914
- 9142
And if you ask for a 6-digit series from a 5-digit string, you deserve
whatever you get.
Note that these series are only required to occupy *adjacent positions*
in the input; the digits need not be *numerically consecutive*.
## Elm Installation
Refer to the [Exercism help page](http://exercism.io/languages/elm) for Elm
installation and learning resources.
## Writing the Code
The first time you start an exercise, you'll need to ensure you have the
appropriate dependencies installed.
```bash
$ npm install
```
Execute the tests with:
```bash
$ npm test
```
Automatically run tests again when you save changes:
```bash
$ npm run watch
```
As you work your way through the test suite, be sure to remove the `skip <|`
calls from each test until you get them all passing!
