# Rna Transcription
Write a program that, given a DNA strand, returns its RNA complement (per RNA transcription).
Both DNA and RNA strands are a sequence of nucleotides.
The four nucleotides found in DNA are adenine (**A**), cytosine (**C**),
guanine (**G**) and thymine (**T**).
The four nucleotides found in RNA are adenine (**A**), cytosine (**C**),
guanine (**G**) and uracil (**U**).
Given a DNA strand, its transcribed RNA strand is formed by replacing
each nucleotide with its complement:
* `G` -> `C`
* `C` -> `G`
* `T` -> `A`
* `A` -> `U`
To run the tests simply run the command `go test` in the exercise directory.
If the test suite contains benchmarks, you can run these with the `-bench`
flag:
go test -bench .
For more detailed info about the Go track see the [help
