You should have successfully and comfortably completed the introductory Lua Tasks 1-7 before considering this task or any of the other advanced ones.

This task requires a lot of research and independent learning and is considerably more difficult than the introductory seven tasks. It is not suitable for beginners to programming, although students new to Lua with previous experience in other programming languages should be able to produce acceptable solutions. You will not be guided step-by-step, but will have to work out your own schedule. Nevertheless, the mentors will be available to provide help and clarify anything you don't understand.

This task requires you to create a function to extract a name from a piece of text and format it according to some rules.
