Incorrect. The Kata says to include your own points into the average.

Despite the kata instructions saying to include your own scores, it is not necessary.

Wow, it's so laconically :) Interesting task!

i really didnt want this to be true , but well done .

Your points are not included in the array of your class's points. Do not forget them when calculating the average score!

I like tha math. I was assuming this is incorrect becuase of leaving your_points. But later, I realized that this is mathematically correct.Thanks to @Idiot_with_a_shovel - https://www.codewars.com/users/Idiot_with_a_shovel

kata included instructions to not calculate the user into the average

This is a clever use of exceptions, though I would avoid this in production code. Raising exceptions is costly, and also if "a" happens to be a long string you would be creating a string 50 times larger.

good use!

please do not post solutions in the discourse, otherwise anyone can see it without the spoiler flag. I have added the flag to your comment.

This is incorrect. by not including your_points, you are not really calculating the average of the class

Thuis a brilliant codewar

If you're like me and read this comment and don't get the math explanation - plain english one is that if you add your points to the class average and your points cause that average to rise - that by default means your score was higher than the average of the class. That's why you don't need to add it in this particular example.

Quick Maffs!
