Feature #6: Identify a Species

Implement the "Identify a Species" feature for our "Computational Biology" project.

Description

The DNA for an alien species consists of a sequence of nucleotides. We can uniquely identify a species by finding the longest substring of nucleotides in the DNA, where no nucleotide appears twice. This substring of DNA is known as a species marker. Given an animal’s DNA, where each nucleotide is represented by a letter, we can find its species marker.
