Hey guys,
what do you think about that method?

What could make my Javascript code pass all the basic tests and fail all the random tests? :-(

Note: Your function should modify the input rather than creating a new array.

^ That

in JS
on console.log(res) I see a rigth answer, but return same result in function take a error and show nonchanged (arr)

exp =
AB

• BB

= 2079
Expected: ''27 * 77 = 2079'', instead got: ''63 * 33 = 2079''

Both results are correct. And in first test
ABC

• CBA

= 39483
Expected: ''123 * 321 = 39483'', instead got: ''321 * 123 = 39483''
also both results are correct. Сan be excluded from tests examples that have an ambiguous solution?

Please read posts below. The question has been put and answered many times.

Test Case Number 2:
WHY ==> 'Elizabeth' should equal 'Matthew'
i am calculating their values to be both 485, so alphabetically is Elizabeth 1st.
i am getting 66 Passed Tests and 2 Failed, both same case as this.

For me it is. Thanks.

OK. I hope it's correct now:-)

That's better, one last thing I would change is make all PauL's the same capitalization.

See above.

Description modified. Could you have a look? Thanks!

Rename the partial value of the instructions to something else, n is already used as a function's argument and that's a little confusing.

The length of the firstname is added to the sum of these ranks hence a number m. An array of random weights is linked to the firstnames and each m is multiplied by its corresponding weight to get what they call a winning number.

Something like that or whatever name not used in another part you want would be fine.

There are two ns there, one should be renamed.

The length of the firstname is added to the sum of these ranks hence a number m. An array of random weights is linked to the firstnames and each m is multiplied by its corresponding weight to get what they call a winning number.

Like that ^.

Hi, I'm definitely missing something, so could someone please clarify? -
If n is calculated by the first name length + rank of each letter in the name, why is n provided as an argument in the function?
I would think we would get the string argument, weights argument and then calculate n ourselves, using it to calculate the 'winning number'...
Thanks for your help
