Exactly the solution I came up with :)

I know someone had replied earlier. But I'm sorry to say, its just not a solid argument that 17k other people have compeleted this. I know I wrote perfectly working code. If your tests can only work, if you coded it a very specific manner, then the entire kata is flawed from the ground up. It doesnt teach anyone anything if you have to go do a google search to get the solution.

There isnt a way to run this kata without timing out the test engine. You need to lower the test numbers.
