    sort of understand what you mean but not sure how to go about implementing it. Do you have an example you can link to?
    Haven't come across this before..

    not sure what you mean? I've already added both preloaded and post test cases...

    I've expanded the description to include some examples and changed the parameter name. Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for noticing - I've added that to the description. Also, I hadn't realised that only the example test cases show up for the user, and I've added some more random test cases as well.

    More test cases added :)

    Hi, sorry that I created a duplicate kata. As adam suggested, I did try and search for existing kata for something similar but couldn't find any. Is there a resource you can point me to that might help me search more effectively and prevent this happening again in the future?

    Ah sorry, I didn't realise this problem had been suggested many times before!

    I think the task description just needs some minor rephrasing. For example, the following I think works:

    "A palindrome is a word, phrase, number, or other sequence of characters which reads the same backward or forward.

    Your code must return true if the string given is a palindrome and false if it isn't.
    In order to do so, you will need need to remove punctuation and turn all the characters to lower case.

    Famous examples of palindromes include "A man, a plan, a canal, Panama!", "Amor, Roma", "race car" and "No 'x' in Nixon".

    Is it possible to go down a ranking? I was on 7kyu but now appear to have been downgraded to 8kyu. I think it was because I opened a bunch of katas without really attempting to solve any..
    And as a result they're all uncompleted now, which I think may have brought my ranking down...
