## :camera: Screenshots
.
## :signal_strength: Technologies
* [moment v2](https://www.npmjs.com/package/moment) npm module to parse, validate, manipulate and format dates.
* [bl v4](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bl) buffer list; a storage object for collections of Node Buffers
* [UTF-8](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8) variable-width character encoding (As of August 2020, UTF-8 accounts for 95.4% of all web pages)
* [through2-map](https://www.npmjs.com/package/through2-map) uses array map function on data streams (chunks)
## :floppy_disk: Setup
* Setup is not applicable. These javascript files were run inside a c9 backend challenges boilerplate
## :computer: Code Examples
* extract from `my_first_async_io.js` to parse contents of a `utf8` file using the file system module 'readFile'
```javascript
const fs = require('fs'); //loads the fs module from node.js
fs.readFile(process.argv[2], 'utf8', (err, string) => {
if (err) return console.error(err);
const result = string.split('\n').length - 1;
console.log(result);
}); //returns contents of file
/*notes:
utf8 is 1 to 4 8-bit bytes of binary data
*/
```
