JS translation

• Added link to other kata in description
• Changed ref sol with a more suitable one for this kata
• Added a JS translation on other kata

yep, my first ones were already hidden.
current one would not work for the 3kyu kata anyway

Yep, but your solution in this kata should be made hidden by a mod ;)

ok, I'll post another.

it seems that kata needs a JS translation as well ;-)

• let's not change specs, this kata exists: https://www.codewars.com/kata/59953009d65a278783000062
• in fact, your solution is too fast for the current kata :p
• well, this kata should have included a link to that one in the description ...

couldn't find a chat/thread there with that discussion.
but you could ping me ( @twilight_sun ) if that makes sense. I have no certain opinion at the moment

If you're on Discord, you might find some other opinions whether we should increase diff level of this kata. I agree that current performance requirements probably makes this more 5 kyu at the moment.

I'll use that as ref sol inside verification code

impressive, 5 seconds for this heavy batch:

for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
      const maxN = random(1, 1000);
      const maxFn = random(1, 20);
      ...

done (submitted the solution). maybe not the clearest code, but should be faster

I think you should post it, I doubt a performance version will be authored. We do need to make sure that we also adapt the Python version if we decide to make this kata harder. Also, other users (including author) might not agree with making this kata really 4 kyu ;)

Both our solutions solve this in 2-3 seconds:

for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
      const maxN = random(1, 1000);
      const maxFn = random(1, 7);
      ..

Mine has a limit around 11 seconds on below, your solve this in 5 seconds:

for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
      const maxN = random(1, 1000);
      const maxFn = random(1, 15);

oh, excuse me =)

It depends on what ranges are ok for your solution, as mine is a result of looking at numbers without understanding of a problem per se

since it's 4 kyu, perhaps we should increase range .. (edit: are you playing the edit-game again to make conversations very hard to trace back :p)
