## To Run

To launch the program, execute the following from a command-line interface: 

```

node index.js [optional regex]

```

You are allowed to pass in a regex string as an argument to this program. 

For example, executing 

```

node index.js "[^oizehslbg]"

```

Should return the longest word that can be typed in on a 9 digit calculator screen (flipped upside down).
