Thank you for the heads-up!!...NOW I know what they are asking!"

Numbers are present in test cases.

He uses for i in range(10), so the final roll is only added as rolls[1] from strike or rolls[0] from spare.

OH This makes way more sense. I was so confused what it was actually asking me. Thanks.

You could understand the variable months like this, months=1 is the end of the first month, months=2 is the end of the second month, ..., month=0 means you are going to buy a car.

jesaflex, has you tried to do the linkedin aptitude test? The recruiters use them.

Further as in authoring translations or kata, where you actually need to make some design decisions, write code which is actually used and maintained, solve problems other than just an actual task of the kata, and take a part in some process involving other people, who can share their remarks and point out mistakes.

About other services, the only ones I am aware of are the ones used for skill assesment and verification used by companies recruiting and looking for professionals, like Qualified, or Devskiller, or similar. But these are paid services where you, as a coder, are usually located "at the other end". The sharp, pointy one ;) I am not familiar with a website providing similar service for free/for fun, but there might be some.

I would say it can be very useful, but not in the aspect you might expect. The problems you solve in "real life" coding do not look like kata, so solving kata is not much like professional programming. But it still can teach you a lot about some things related to, for example, handling cases like FP accuracy, overflow, performance, etc.

But if you go further than just solving kata, it gets you a bit closer to actual work tasks.

"just for fun", just like being "a developing programmer"

Codewars ranks do not translate too well into skills needed for commercial software development. Remember that currently, development is not only writing the code. It's also being familiar with technology, working in a team, working with tools.

If whatever related to Codewars, then I think authoring a well curated, high quality kata (of any difficulty) is what brings you closer to actual developer activities, rather than solving tasks.

Literally trash description tbh

yes

yes, the right member is evaluated one shot, then it's assigned one shot to the left member elements/"addresses"
