Damn I really need to look at the std more often.

Is mutating an original string a best practice?

Both string and algorithm are included in the test cases already. So we have access to them via the code that runs our code.

Love your avatar Mr. Storm Pandaren :)

Hi, the same problem here, in Dart.
Expected: "h(t) = -16.0t^2 + 17.88t + 51"
my return: "h(t) = -16.0t^2 + 17.880t + 51.0" wrong

C++ translation - please approve if ok.

I think that the string is not trimmed in random tests:
Expected: equal to muIcKiTXBKIdGdTwFMFnAxdtEUrRClWvsMPdJxay lPduzTkLMLxay
Actual: muIcKiTXBKIdGdTwFMFnAxdtEUrRClWvsMPdJxay lPduzTkLMLxay

After adding char in front and in end
Expected: equal to PIPay
Actual: PIPay

Your function should return, not print to the console. Also your code is losing punctuation marks.

Yep, thanks :)

C#, yes? Fixed now.

Thers is still problem with expected formatting and its description.

"EVERYTHING, including values in the equations appearing as coefficients, must be rounded to THREE decimal places. However, if the value is whole, only show one decimal place (for example => -16 becomes -16.0, not -16.000)" implicates that there should be 3 or 1 decimal place, but I've got error:

Expected string length 31 but was 32. Strings differ at index 23.
Expected: "h(t) = -16.0t^2 + 23.84t + 64.0"
But was: "h(t) = -16.0t^2 + 23.840t + 64.0"
----------------------------------^

EDIT:
My next attempt, with 1, 2 or 3 decimal places:

Expected string length 28 but was 30. Strings differ at index 19.
Expected: "h(t) = -16.0t^2 + 0t + 161.0"
But was: "h(t) = -16.0t^2 + 0.0t + 161.0"
------------------------------^

So it excpected no decimal places now.
