it is the tradeoff for using a scrited language. it is almost impossible to do
anything without headers in c.

thank you

Very helpful comment, thank you.

Why do you do the Kata when you don't like regex????

nice how such riddles can actually teach people things better than any university

Tuple.

(I've no idea why you've problem with tuple being immutable)

I agree! It should be 7. kyu, your opinion matter, thanks for feedback.

A or B evaluates to A if A is "true", otherwise to B (even if B is "false").
1 or 24 => 1
0 or 24 => 0
0 or False => False

02 is a format specifier (https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/string.html#formatspec)

• 0: leading zeroes
• 2: minimum width

Honestly I would not expect anyone to not know how this game works. But apparently I'd be wrong :)

It doesn't say it SHOULD be a 7 or 6, it says it CAN be a 7 or 6. That depends on you.

I thought the same thing but once I understood the trick I also understood why that was added to the top. It CAN be more difficult than an 8 if you go about it the hard way.

I intentionally included them, so that new Python users can see the wonderful world of type hinting, which was added as long ago as 3.5, but since then getting more and more popular, mostly due to some great modules and libraries (like Pydantic) taking advantage of this feature.

Note: works only in Pyhthon 3.8 and above

It's a type hint.

If description doesn't say otherwise then using already existing functions is pretty good approach. In any case everyone is free in ways of solving.
