So, are we to leave this as an issue or let it play itself out?

Looks like you are correct. Could we just wait and see if either even get approved? Mine seems to be closer, but has gone stale. So it may be a non-issue.

I figured as much. I just wasn't sure, because I have yet to identify where I may be accidently creating a huge array. I think I will just restructure my loop.

I hit the same issue again after feformatting my loop. But this time the problem was more visible. I had a bug not correctly handing one-word lines.

Javascript. Consistently pass everything up until random width 13.

Marking as resolved, as it will be before I republish.

Yes. I will put this one on ice until I have some time to reformat. Thanks again.

Thank you for the explanation. Un-published. Do you think it is possible to fix this kata?

I made that too easy. Find that just by guessing?

Impressive. I considered using a different gravity constant, like on Mars. may I ask how you came up with your solution?

How are you disabling Math.log etc? I need the same thing for some other kata ideas.

DONE. Accidently submitted the not-so-clean version first, but cleaned it up some. About 250 Lines of code, and 1.5s. This will probably be the only 1kyu I ever solve. My solution fails occasionally to random, but only because I did not iterate my steps enough, and I did not feel like refactoring any more.

Before I begin this journey. Could someone provide some metrics to help me decide my methods? How important is performance? Is knowing how to solve the hardest minesweeper maps enough, or do I need to focus on minimizing iteration? What is the maximum input sizes? Should I avoid line-saver functions to save on comp time? Not looking for spoilers per se, I just know this is a 1kyu and I struggle with 2kyu, but I am great at minesweeper.

My opinion: most popular association. Most people were introduced to minesweeper through Windows. I don't think the author is necessarily name dropping, but just setting the stage in the most familiar way for most.

I just have to ask... How long did it take you to create this kata? This thing looks like a master's thesis in organic chemistry.
