IT MAKES SENSE GOSH IT DOES MAKE SENSE

Masterpiece

Beautiful and concise.

I dont have an example, as I mentioned previously these are merely rhetorical queries, not examples, I suggest it remains the same for now, as there are a number of comments here which are abvle to provide clarity.

well , I understand you , I will try to raise the question again , if it doesn't bother you and you have already solved the problem , could you suggest a new condition for it , it would be much more convenient , I will try to supplement the condition with your example . Thank you in advance for such great assistance to kata

Whilst I thank you for that edicational aside, I feel you have somewhat failed to grasp the scope of my confusion. It was nothing to do with any such pedagogical issues, it was entiely a communicative and semantic problem. The challenge problem was clear and precise, however, again in my opinion, I felt that the approach was rather obscured in the description, this is the core of my issue, and makes no assumptions about creativity or any such facet, merely a slight obfuscation due to language.

I have gone through te examples ans solutions, having forefitted the challenge, and now understand it better. My issue was not personal in the slightest, though you appear to have taken some issue with it form the rather defensive nature of your reply. This was certainly not my intention. I merely provided an opinion on my reading of the challenge.

it seems to me that an important fragment of the condition was missed, the numbers must be consecutive , and the sequence of natural numbers is x , x+1 , x+2 and so on

explaining for you, this is a sequence of numbers starting from n and continuing in steps of 1, however, you need to understand that understanding the condition of the problem is also important, since a detailed condition in your understanding will cut off the scope for creativity and actually provide a ready-made solution to the problem, which from my point of view would be highly undesirable

OK, thank you

after a long discussion in discord, the community unanimously came to the conclusion that the condition does not require improvements

the description says that this is a sequence of consecutive numbers, and the numbers are natural, your interpretation destroys the sequence itself, and since your examples have a deviation modulus above one, they lose the very fact of a series of natural numbers, since in the series of natural numbers the deviation = 1

No need to apologize, this is my confusion, it may well be clear for others!

For me as a native English speaker, the description is clear enough to an extent. However, the examples are where the confusion lies, For example, you have provided this:

"Given a sequence of one or more 'consecutive natural numbers' concatenated into a string, return the smallest possible first number in the sequence."

"91011" -> [9, 10, 11] -> 9

Under which premise is this not [9,0,1,1] as a sequence? Both 1 and 9 are natural numbers with 1 being the smallest. However you have stated "smallest possible first number" Im not sure what you mean here, the smallest natural number or the first natural number of the sequence.

Given:

"121122123" -> [121, 122, 123] -> 121

Its not clear how you are choosing to group these numbers, there is no pattern here why is this not [1,2,1,1,2,2,1,2,3] or [12,11,22,12,3] ?

Of course this is my own confusion here, but I am struggling to follow how the challenge text and the examples fit together. The tests do not really help much in this case either.

Please note these examples are taken from your description, they are not mine

but at the same time, the description clearly states that the description contains a sequence of natural numbers, it also indicates that the numbers are not cut off, from my point of view this is an exhaustive description of the problem, in case of misunderstanding, multiple examples are provided

hello, I apologize for your dissatisfaction, but I do not quite understand what the problem is, could you explain in more detail which parts of the description you did not understand?
