what 'empty object' ? which language ?

for (j = 0; j < len; j++) { 
  while (arr[j] == 0) {
    count++; j++;
  } 

think about what happens if the arrays ends with one or more zeroes ?

also, please do not open Issues so lightly in the future

Not a kata issue. Wait to see if your stats update later and open an issue here: https://github.com/codewars/codewars.com/issues if not.

The only reason I agree it being a 5kyu is the test cases being bad.
Thats the only reason it's difficult to me.

The test case isn't not helpful. Please add empty arrays and empty objects in your own program.

Did anyone else not recieve any points for completing this Kata?
I did not check solution.

Smart.

Test cases are poorly written.

Please check this; and do not raise Issues so lightly in the future. An issue is a provable bug in the kata and has to include enough details for us to replicate and fix it ;-)

Passed two test cases. For some reason my code keeps stopping. Everything until then is spot on though.
