Running

Perform these steps in order

Open three terminals, and they will be refered to as "terminal 1", "terminal 2", and "terminal 3" respectively.

In terminal 2:

cd node2
./node
>> 3333
>> 0
>> n

In terminal 3:

cd node3
./node
>> 4444
>> 0
>> n

In terminal 1:

cd node1
./FAT/fat
>> 1
>> 2 
>> 3
>> 11 -> To see the Blockchain
>> 12 -> Check if the Blockchain is valid (checks proof-of-work, whether the block's hash is valid, and if current block's previous hash equals the previous block's hash)
>> 13 -> Export blockchain for distribution
>> 9
CTRL+C
./node
>> 2222
>> 127.0.0.1
>> 3333
>> 127.0.0.1
>> 4444
>> 0
>> y

From any active node:

>> fetch
>> one

This will demonstrate the features currently implemented. CTRL+C to exit any of the nodes.
