Being able to understand the problem so well and condense it into essentially one line of code is what separates the 1% of programmers from the rest, crazy impressive work

The point of codewars is to practice your problem solving and coding skills by doing the problem yourself, without having a library do the enitre thing for you. Yes you're 100% right that a better and more convenient solution exists, but you won't learn anything about the concept itself if you don't think hard and just google a function for it instead

And about banning the library, you're right that they could've banned it, but it wasn't intended to be used, otherwise the kata would be 7 or 8 kyu instead

Good job, it always feels amazing to finally reach a goal that you set yourself ages ago

I forgot too, but thankfully I realised after reading the formula a couple times

I'm proud of myself for actually solving the problem instead of depending on libraries to do it for me

This was basically my first solution before I learned about %B lol

I had a lot of fun with this one :)

I've added random tests

Resolved (I'll add random tests soon)

How would I implement random tests? I've never made a kata before so I'm not quite sure

Nice solution! I'm honestly just glad to see that the kata actually works, it's my first one so I hope you enjoyed it :)

Bulgarian mentioned ‼️

This is so clever but I'm not even going to begin trying to understand what's going on here :p

Great idea to change the parameters into words, it makes the code much more readable!
