very nice . esoteric and elegant .

you are trying to encode the string again, decode it

Sample from task is working:

Letter: m | 12 * 6015 % 26 = 4 == e

Letter: e | 4 * 6015 % 26 = 10 == k

Letter: r | 17 * 6015 % 26 = 23 == x

But trying five letters from first test:

request = "1273409kuqhkoynvvknsdwljantzkpnmfgf" and answer must be "uogbucwnddunktsjfanzlurnyxmx"

Letter: k | 10 * 1273409 % 26 = 18 == s

Letter: u | 20 * 1273409 % 26 = 10 == k

Letter: q | 16 * 1273409 % 26 = 8 == i

Letter: h | 7 * 1273409 % 26 = 23 == x

Letter: k | 10 * 1273409 % 26 = 18 == s

None of the letters match. Maybe I didn't understand the task?

Thanks!

Spent an hour on this, really good one

omg bro you alright?

Thanks!

power

2 ** 2 = 4

4 ** 2 = 16

25 ** 2 = 625

Can anyone explain what the ** in 0 <= width <= 10 ** 32 means?

great kata

A latin square is an n × n array filled with the integers 1 to n, each occurring once in each row and column.

You can make it as random as you want as long as it's a Latin Square

Is the output meant to be a random square of size nxn? This is actually a complex mathematical problem, and then add to that the computational problem of finding a algorithm efficient enough so that it won't time out at high values of n; the ranking of this problem as 7kyu feels way too low. Unless we're just meant to submit a non-random square. If that's the case please clarify.
