Q: The parameter insertMode points to a bool variable that holds the current insert mode of the string. Do you want bool==true to be insert or overwrite? It isn't specified anywhere.
A: Since you're the one using your insertMode variable in your 'other letters' default case, you can set it to whatever you want and treat it as such, simply make sure you're being consistent in your code. Submitted by Team42.
