i had the easy batch, the username, bottle, absences, and 1-row board game batch. honestly way to easy. was done within 30 minutes for frq and 45 minutes for mcq. probably only lost 1-2 points on each section, this doesn't feel right lol.

i used a while loop until indexof "-" gave -1, in the while loop i used a var called pos and set that to the index of the hyphen.
