The Server

The exercise is to model Skynet and Terminators using Elixir. A user can spawn Terminators and then those Terminators go on living their metallic, human-killing lives. Each Terminator has a chance to reproduce and be killed by Sarah Connor at specific intervals.

  • Take advantage of Elixir's OTP features.
  • When the app starts there should be no Terminators.
  • There should be a function that when called spawns a Terminator.
    • While this terminator is alive, it has a chance to reproduce and be killed by Sarah Connor.
    • Every 5 seconds, each terminator has a 20% chance of reproducing, creating 1 new terminator.
      • Terminators can reproduce more than once. They're trying to take over the world, after all.
    • Every 10 seconds, each terminator has a 25% chance to be killed by Sarah Connor.
  • Each terminator should have a unique ID.
  • There should be a function to manually kill a Terminator given its ID.
  • There should be a function to get a list of all living Terminators.
  • You don't need to keep track of ancestry / hierarchy.
  • Expect this part to be run and manually tested in iex.

The API

Create API endpoints for the following actions. You can pick what API protocol to use, if any.

  • Spawn a terminator
  • Manually kill a terminator
  • List all living terminators
