Glad to hear it! If it was up to me, I'd say it's 5 kyu due to the time it takes to write down key mappings and to come up with working algorithm through trial and error, etc, but the standarts keep rising on CW, so expect something like this to be the new 6 kyu ;)

A little tough compared to some of the other 6 kyu katas but definitely one of the more fun challenges I've solved.

Thanks for the info..
sincerely,
a n00b.

note: some definitions local to cw:

• Issue: problem in the kata itself (description, wrong tests, wrong internal solution...)
• Suggestions: well, I guess that part is clear
• Question anything else that is related to you having a problem solving a kata -> that's you, currently.

cheers ;)

in your tests you do not have # after an uppercase to go back to lower case

what's this, then? "#44#33..." (edit: don't forget that the sample tests are just sample. That comes from the full test suite)

the test for "oen two three" is also wrong as theres a space?

from the description:

If you have 2 or more characters in a sequence that reside on the same button (refer to layout, bottom row), you have to wait before pressing the same button again. Waiting is represented by adding a space between 2 (or more) such characters. Example:
44 444 44 444 => 'hihi'

Seriously, read the specs again before beleiving that the tests are wrong. 99% of the time, that's the user that is wrong... ;)

you say uppercase is a toggle and yet in your tests you do not have # after an uppercase to go back to lower case..
