NASM kyu text says "Define a function that takes in two non-negative integers a and b". The NASM base tests do not use integers. You get a pointer to a char. The kyu text is misleading and should be adjusted.

Lua

my answer lies in the lastdigits[i]

this passes the time limit:

print(i, lastdigits[i])
return 0 

this does not:

print(i, lastdigits[i])
return lastdigits[i]

It doesnt seem to be an optimization problem, because the code doesnt pass the time limit only when i return the table element, but I can call it anywhere else in the code for however many times and there will be no problem

The kata's performance requirements are drastically different. For example, an O(N) solution in JS would pass easily but would time out in Python.

In JS, the maximum input caps of at 15 while for Python it can go up to 10e16 (or something along those lines). This is more than enough to warrant a big difference in performance expectations.

C and NASM should be included in the final remarks about being passed in a string and not an integer.

Ruby 3.0 should be enabled.
