If you don't specify a language, answering your question is impossible. Help us help you!

Notes:

• Performance needs to be considered

Also, performance and optimization tags.

It seems highly unlikely the problem is with the kata or the platform. It seems highly likely it's with your code. Which makes this not an issue.

Your O(2n) claim is impossible to evaluate without your code ( and would normally be written O(n) because constants are uninteresting in this context ).

Closing.

I agree. It fails on sample tests, but it passes when hitting submit. Any suggestions on how to remove it? Codewars isn't clear on how something like this is resolved.
