Thank you for the clarification! Done

Thanks for the detailed explanaition!

Smth similar to https://www.codewars.com/kata/584703d76f6cf6ffc6000275, as far as I understand now. Math makes things easier

Testing for [['XXX', 5], ['', 1], ['XXXXX', 3], ['XX', 1], ['', 9], ['XXXXXXX', 10], ['X', 9], ['XXXXXXXXXX', 5], ['XXXXX', 7], ['XXXXXXXXXX', 10], ['XXXXXXX', 0], ['XXXX', 8]] and 2

It should work for random inputs too: 'Game On' should equal [2]

i need to find 2 chairs. But there are 2 free chairs in the very first room => i don't need the chairs => Game On, right? But why [2]?

Testing for [['XX', 8], ['XXXXXXXX', 6], ['XXXXXXX', 10], ['XX', 4], ['XXXXXXXX', 10], ['XXXXXX', 3], ['XXX', 6], ['XXXXXXXXX', 9]] and 4
It should work for random inputs too: 'Game On' should equal [4]

same issue. There are 6 free chairs out of 8 in the room 0. Why do i need to find extra [4]?

incredible!
could you please explain the magic numbers? (2, 6, [0, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2])
and how is it even possible to come up with such a solution!?

Thank you! Done

i pass all tests except starting with 'x'. could you please clarify on the leading 0's rule? Input 'xx': 3 should be close to 2.5 with absolute or relative margin of 0.01 - don't understand how it's possible

thanks! Now got it. Need to distribute ALL the numbers in a certain order + the given list is unordered. The description is not that accurate(

and how this can be True? test.assert_equals(consecutive_nums([6, 6, 6, 9, 7, 8, 7, 5, 8, 5, 7, 8], 4), True)

is it True? Description, Examples, consecutive_nums([1, 2, 3, 6, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8], 3) ➞ True, # [1, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4], [6, 7, 8]

beauty!

don't you think this is a typewriter operator, not a programmer, solution?

ok, thank you!

just found this as well - https://www.codewars.com/kumite/59b634e38bcb77b5b4000079?sel=5d401db65ce635000eddf500
don't understand what's wrong with the index()

Hi, i had a fast kata solution not taking into account that x can have more than just 3 possible different values. And in your solution i found kwargs approach. But still, the are abc's later in your code. I used kwargs to adjust my solution. Could you please evaluate it? In terms of universality, time and memory complexity or any other aspect.
