I must apologize. I wrote this deeply frustrated as I am just starting to learn programming and I could not see the logic behind this kata.

It would be very educational to look at the solutions. Or come up with a solution which does not time out. Like, really.

No, it's not the goal here. It is your task to come up with a solution which does not time out.

Cmon, it is so easy it hurts.

Cmon, it is so easy it hurts. Please fix the number so it does not time out every time even with the simplest for loop.

Do all those solutions contain loops? Then you should try something different.

focus on the output of the problem, it requires the length not the sequence of the numbers.

I also keep getting Execution Timed Out, Ive tried three different solutions that pass Test Case.

Gonna be honest, took me a while to realize that I should be writing an algorithm not a program but honestly I'm proud of what I made.

a set is a data structure that can contain no duplicate elements.

Concatenation its almost first thing you learn in python.

Yeah. I imagined it would be an error such as can not perform operations on strings or some other compatability error!

Incredible solution though, you have to admit!

You are playing 4D chess what the fuck is that
