# Queue-it Proof-of-Work
A Python solution for Queue-it's Proof-of-Work challenge ().
## Usage
Usage:
```python
import base64, hashlib, json
def solveChallenge(input, zeroCount):
zeros = "0" * zeroCount
postfix = 0
while True:
postfix += 1
stri = input + str(postfix)
encodedHash = hashlib.sha256(stri.encode()).hexdigest()
if encodedHash.startswith(zeros):
x = 10 * [{ "hash": encodedHash,"postfix": postfix }]
return base64.b64encode(json.dumps(x, separators=(',', ':')).encode()).decode()
# GET THESE VALUES FROM THE RESPONSE WHEN FETCHING
# THE CHALLENGE AT .../challengeapi/pow/challenge/...
input = "f02b931c-52f0-4507-9406-f1221678dc16"
zeroCount = 2
# RETURNS THE CHALLENGE SOLUTION
solution = solveChallenge(input, zeroCount)
print(solution)
```
