-Translate RNA sequences into proteins.
+Your job is to translate RNA sequences into proteins.
 
-RNA can be broken into three-nucleotide sequences called codons, and then translated to a protein like so:
+RNA strands are made up of three-nucleotide sequences called **codons**.
+Each codon translates to an **amino acid**.
+When joined together, those amino acids make a protein.
 
-RNA: `"AUGUUUUCU"` => translates to
-
-Codons: `"AUG", "UUU", "UCU"`
-=> which become a protein with the following sequence =>
-
-Protein: `"Methionine", "Phenylalanine", "Serine"`
-
-There are 64 codons which in turn correspond to 20 amino acids; however, all of the codon sequences and resulting amino acids are not important in this exercise.
-If it works for one codon, the program should work for all of them.
-However, feel free to expand the list in the test suite to include them all.
-
-There are also three terminating codons (also known as 'STOP' codons); if any of these codons are encountered (by the ribosome), all translation ends and the protein is terminated.
-
-All subsequent codons after are ignored, like this:
-
-RNA: `"AUGUUUUCUUAAAUG"` =>
-
-Codons: `"AUG", "UUU", "UCU", "UAA", "AUG"` =>
-
-Protein: `"Methionine", "Phenylalanine", "Serine"`

-Note the stop codon `"UAA"` terminates the translation and the final methionine is not translated into the protein sequence.
