Loading collection data...
Collections are a way for you to organize kata so that you can create your own training routines. Every collection you create is public and automatically sharable with other warriors. After you have added a few kata to a collection you and others can train on the kata contained within the collection.
Get started now by creating a new collection.

Then the Kata is not clear on that. It mentions nothing about being able to shuffle people around. When most people think a line, they think first to last, one after the other.
The data type of the characteristics column is Text.
column_name data_type
characteristics text
So when you try to select the distinct value of that column, the whole text is compared against the other rows.
id name characteristics
1 Cyril big, smelly
2 Tiny small, stinky, smelly
So give the above, it will check the "big, smelly" against "small, stinky, smelly" which are two different strings, even though the second one has a characteristic that the first one has.
"If you get more than 3, you will be kicked out, for being too smart". There is something in SQL that could be benefical for making sure you don't get kicked out for being too smart.
So I think you are incorrect in how you are generating the numbers.
Given y = (x * 2 +1 ), you aren't looking to plug n in there, as x is what is in u.
This sentence might help clear up the issue "1 gives 3 and 4, then 3 gives 7 and 10, 4 gives 9 and 13, then 7 gives 15 and 22 and so on..."
So you start with 1, y will equal 1 * 2 + 1 = 3, z =4. So now it looks like [1,3,4] The next step is moving to the next item in the sequence. So you do the same y = 3 * 2 + 1 = 7 and z = 10 and so on.
So you aren't plugging into the y or z formula but are using the numbers in the sequence.
The assert tests could be more verbose on what is being tested

Yup, I checked the doc, msg first :)
Thank you for the advice though, I am working to improve my Java skills and want to continue to improve. I took all of the three points as added more to the translation. There are now random tests for both even and odd sized arrays using random ints, I have corrected the naming conventions (This is the hardest for me, this was never a point when I was in school and it is a bad habit I'm working on breaking). I also added the messages for each test.
Thanks!
As others have said, Shell tests are not working properly.
