+# Instructions
+
+Given a string of digits, output all the contiguous substrings of length `n` in that string in the order that they appear.
+
+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_.
