Look again, and the index value for 2 is 27.

could you please fix your broken test cases

At index 25 it is expected result to contain the number 2 , whereas from the given array it does not even contain 2

Well, I had just created some print statements to track the words... I've since deleted that but you can easily do the same. Also: I did notice that your code fails on other types of test, so give it a thorough look while print/debugging. Best of luck!

You have to check '(' and ')' but you can ignore those : {} []

is it possible to have some test cases pls

Hi junioryao, I have run your code and checked its output. It returned 1 (claiming Bob had won) on a random test wherein neither player could find any match word for the original game word. Tests of this type should return -1.

awesome, thanks Jomo!

hello , is there any errors on the random test case for java , I dont it how the code fails , as well as all cases in the discussion every case work fine , I dont get it

you are right there is a mistake here

explain pls 😁
