read the description carefully. first i solved it for the GREATEST SUM of 5 consecutive digits then after the tests failed realized it was NOT asking for the sum but just the largest 5 digit number. doh!

ship it. straight to prod. haha love this

i was thinking the same thing :)

Thanks! oversight on my part, tests past great now

the tests are still broken unless 72 is smaller than 19...

this needs to be added to the coding hall of fame. epic.

Not that this is that difficult, but seems like it should be a 7 kyu not 8

great kata. IMO a bit harder than a 7 kyu

IMO not enough info about the correct string format. very vague

Thanks @smile67, @FrankK, and @donaldsebleung for the feedback. I revamped the testing and added a basic randomized test, which may or may not be sufficient. Any feedback on the revised tests would be much appreciated!

Also I found a couple kata that were similar to this one but not exactly the same, but if there is one already out there, send me the link to it. I dont want to go stealing someones thunder. :)
