Busbud Backend coding challenge submission

# Busbud Back-end Coding Challenge

The BusBud back-end programming challenge

This app is a simple back-end endpoint that serves a list of suggested cities based on a query string. The computed result is a success flag and a list of cities, with their latitudes, longitudes and a score to determine the level of certainty of the match. The app can be accessed at the following url: `http://busbud-backend.herokuapp.com/suggestions?q=`. Optionally the URL accepts `longitude` and `latitude` parameters to refine the search, increasing the scores of cities closer to the desired coordinates. The application passes all given functional tests.
