Worst description i've ever read. sorry.

Let me know in comments if we can increase range of numbers in random tests, and whether an even faster ref sol can be used.

improved tests

added

done

Looks like there is wrong mark in description in maxmimum word

python new test framework

thanks

I agree 100% that this is an off-by-one error. If, as the description suggests, the target_floor (highest floor before the egg breaks) is 1 <= target_floor <= max_floor, and we are to find max_floor, then (n, m) = (0, 0) implies that max_floor = 1.

If you instead use the definition that 0 <= target_floor <= max_floor then this is equivalent to solving the problem from the other perspective and then subtracting 1 from the resulting max_floor. Indeed, if you consider the algorithm for finding the target_floor, and if from the start it is assumed that k <= target_floor for some k, then it is useless for the algorithm to check any floors at or below k. This effectively shifts the algorithm's search by k - 1 places and thus shifts the resulting max_floor by the same amount.

Respectable approach for sure, but I still feel that being able to prove the answer is what you suspect it to be is also a pretty important skill (not sure if that's what you meant or not).

Realy good Kata! Thanks to author!

Dead problem 💀
