well, most of times we call some functions without knowing how it's done inside the blackbox, that is abstraction. it is a fact that is not readable but you would not need to read that.

Awww damnit. I always overdo my code. One line!?

Unreadable. I wish code like this would not get upvoted so much. This is not best practice.

Thanks for clarifying that.

Have a closer look at your array bounds and what elements in the array you access on each loop.

It's not the author who sets the Kyu. It seems a 7 Kyu kata to me and that's the average of voted rank.

Same thing happened to me. There can't be fraction of a person, use that to figure it out.

Thanks for that Chrono79. I actually meant to use Math.floor, but had round in there instead. In my frustrated state I did not notice this. However that did not solve my issue.

I know what my problem is. I need to count until the population is ABOVE the goal, however I am not confident in which loop to use. I am using a while loop... but that will only count while my population is BELOW OR EQUAL to the target population.

I might have to use a do...while loop... I think. I will try and work on it again tonight.

I am using Math.round on my currentPopulation formula.

I am rounding my currentPopulation down.

Are you sure Math.round does what you want?

I am using Math.round on my currentPopulation formula. And I am still getting "51 to equal 50" error. I have been at this all morning. Urghh.

I just can not, for the life of me, get past the "51 to equal 50" thing. I am rounding my currentPopulation down. Could it be because I am using a while loop? (Javascript) I tried a do...while loop and that does not work either. (I get the dreaded "4 to equal 3" error) Yes, I read the description. Over and over. I read all the comments. Something is just not clicking. I know I have to stop once the population is ABOVE the goal, but I don't know how to make that work.

What is TS?

Ninja code. Neat. But hard on the eyes.
