damn, this is a gem :D that was a first time when I was laughing so much while solving a kata on Codewars.

lol, I just had determination to make regexp work for this kata after you added test which invalidated my first solution

@Steffan153 LOL

Johan, I have approved these both katas before seeing that comment of yours. I have tried my best...you know the rest :) I did that because of the lack of the experience. Hopefully you will forgive me. Kinderziekten.

approved :-)

approved it :)

Bedis, this Kata is really awesome, actually one of the best I have solved on Codewars. It teaches really practical knowledge which is not commonly seen here + great test coverage. Thank you from the core of my heart.

I have read the discussion on github (https://github.com/Codewars/codewars.com/issues/1626), and I must admit that I became somewhat depressed by it :(, especially about this:

"Voile: but these issues have existed since a long time ago, even before the rewrite. Why aren't they done back then?

kazk:This is very simple. Because no one was working on Codewars. The active development basically stopped around the end of 2014 according to the repository history. Not much changed since then. Then Codewars Red was quickly added in 2016 because it was necessary".

I would like to say that in the past year, my occasional contact with Codewars became one of the best events in my life. I have never had a true belief that I can become a developer, and actually, quite a few people said personally to me that "you are so poor, programming is not something with which you should deal in your life". Codewars gave me that belief and inspired me so much. So I hope that everything is gonna be allright.

In the relations of Sensei-deshi it is common that when Soto deshi (one who lives in dojo and trains intensively while having the flexibility to work or study outside of the dojo) pays a certain training fee to Sensei for an apportunity to study.

To make a really interesting kata is quite difficult task which really requires a lot of effort from Sensei. What does community think about implementing of mechanism of possibility to make financial donations to Senseis whose katas became really insirational to deshis?
