You are not considering what can happen if newavg is a float.

No the solution isnt always an integer if newavg is itself not an integer. If that happens(which it most often does in the Test cases) we will always prefer the next higher number. I made this way back in Python 2 but now, in Py 3.8 int isnt necessary.

you must return a 26 bit binary number as a string. If a character in the given string is an alphabet, the returned string must have a 1 in the position corresponding to the position of the letter in the english alphabet.

This is crazy slow!!

this is 7 kyu?.......how?

yeah changing all terms into int expression helped.

what is a good way to round this answer, I tried using round(), int(), ceil() , none of them satisfy all the Random cases

Is it normal for the solution to this problem to take around 9000 ms?If not, whats a faster solution?
