Why

The Fiskil coding challenge

What

Golang Question Implement a small HTTP service in Golang that generates a unique sequence number for every request it receives.

Requirements:

• The service should listen on a configurable port and respond to HTTP GET requests.
• The service should return a unique sequence number in the response body for each request it receives.
• The service should ensure that the sequence number generated is unique across all requests.
• The service should handle multiple requests concurrently and should be thread-safe.
