So is this a "real" issue of kata but not a bug in user's code? I just want to make sure if I should solve it by working hard at codes of client side.

This argument might be trival, but how about using True==True and False==False directly?

Hi guys,

I am working on the Python version and in 490 random test case I can past about 480. The other 10 get the results of "False should equal 1". From the instruction, the return value of function is either True or False, I don't understand why "1" is expected in test case. Did I miss something important?

Appreicate your inputs.

Thanks, looks like I don't need to check that:)

My understanding of the regional rule is that in the 3x3 region there should be 1 to 9 and no duplicates. But the first test case confuses me. The region of cell[row=1, col=0] (upper left cell) and cell[row = 3, col=2] are [6,7,2
1,9,8,
8,5,9].

Both 8 and 9 appear twice but 0 and 3 are missing. Why the result is "Finished!"?

  new object[]
  {
    "Finished!",
    new int[][]
    {
      new int[] {5, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 1, 2}, 
      new int[] {6, 7, 2, 1, 9, 5, 3, 4, 8},
      new int[] {1, 9, 8, 3, 4, 2, 5, 6, 7},
      new int[] {8, 5, 9, 7, 6, 1, 4, 2, 3},
      new int[] {4, 2, 6, 8, 5, 3, 7, 9, 1},
      new int[] {7, 1, 3, 9, 2, 4, 8, 5, 6},
      new int[] {9, 6, 1, 5, 3, 7, 2, 8, 4},
      new int[] {2, 8, 7, 4, 1, 9, 6, 3, 5},
      new int[] {3, 4, 5, 2, 8, 6, 1, 7, 9},
    },
  },

Update: I realized that there is inefficient steps causing time out.

Hello,

I am using python3 and can pass all basic tests. But in "Attempt" phase, a STDERR appeared saying "Process was terminated. It took longer than 12000ms to complete". Since the test case is withheld at this moment, ithe size of array is unknown. Is there any possibility that the calculation time could exceed 12 seconds? What's the largest size of array in test case?

Thanks,
Frank
