    Why in this test exception should not be raised?

    return_types = (<class 'dict'>,) 
return_something's output = Counter({'e': 2, 'r': 1})  # type(output) = <class 'collections.Counter'>

    Counter class is a dict subclass, not dict in itself.

    The same in random tests:

    return_types = (<class 'tuple'>, <class 'collections.abc.Iterable'>, <class 'set'>, <class 'str'>, <class 'function'>, <class 'dict'>, <class 'collections.deque'>, <class 'int'>)
return_something's output = Counter({'d': 2, 'r': 1, 't': 1, 's': 1, 'g': 1})  # type(output) = <class 'collections.Counter'>

    According to tests, exception also should not be raised.

    Why?

    'LSB(least significant bit) convention is used, all hashes must be converted from MSB to LSB'

    Could you explain what does this sentence means ? How should I understand it ?

    So hashes, which are passed to function are in MSB convention? And they should be converted to LSB before concatenation?
