I just saw this comment when I opened the homepage. Curiosity got the best of me and I just had to check it out.

My god.

I feel like I'm missing something simple here. I've been at work on this one for a few hours now, and have tried nested if statements with up to 4 'ands' and 3 'ors' a piece and even still I'm stumped. I'll have to come back once I have more experience. A good test though.

It's clear but it's a very good problem, at least to me. I could have done it by now with some very over-complicated solution with 5 or 7 moving parts (variables/loops), but I'm trying to work out the kinks on paper and come to a concise solution that only has, let's say, 2-3 moving parts. A variable or 2 and a for loop feels like all I should need, but trying to get to that point is what has taken me so long. I did just figure out a way to trim a lot of the fat on it just before I saw that you messaged me.

I have the drive home from work now to think about it.

Did you understand the task? Is there something that isn't clear?

Looks like I'm one of the first people actually discussing this one. I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out what to do here without making this a 30- or 40-line mess.

Omg this got me good. I stayed at work 5 mins over just to read the comments. 🤣
