This is a kumite, not a fork; it shows things but you can't change them from here. If you like the changes ( you can see the exact ones with the Diff tab ), you'll have to fork or edit yourself ( or I could do it, but I'd also have so edit or fork ).

Thanks for the improvement, I'm fine with your version. But, for some reason I didn't find some button here that could merge your version with mine. Could you tell me if it has to be done manually?

Fixed.

Description still says "real" number.

Yeah, you're probably right, custom rounding has not much to do with the essence of the kata itself. Removed that requirement.

You can forfeit and see solutions, that's one way. Or you can visit your favorite JavaScript community and ask for help. Or you can visit the #javascript channel of Codewars Discord and ask for tips.

I'd like to suggest removing of the rounding requirement altogether. It's not needed to illustrate the point of the kata, seems to be artificial, and is defined in a wonky way which does not follow practices of the JS itself.

Just stick to integer indices, it is totally enough. Floats and rounding only cause unnecessary trouble.

i literally do not know where to start and how this is even done

should i forfeit it and see the solutions?

What's the problem?

...this is being ranked anything below 3 kyu? apparently i am no javascript programmer

Now it's fixed.

The description is not fixed. It still mentions rounding half to even. But it should be rounding half away from zero.

I've fixed that, thank you. If there are no further comments, I am closing this issue.

There are fixed tests where rounding half away from zero is required. For instance,

assert.deepEqual(array[-0.5], "string")

-0.5 rounded half to even is 0. But the expected value is -1.
