Sorry, but the only reason a # might get "lost somewhere along the line" is because of your code. The test in question is perfectly valid. Please re-examine your method by focusing on this one test and see what you can do to make it work. One technique for this is to adapt the sample tests to only contain this one test until you can figure it out. Then the rest should come clear. Good luck!

okay, for starters, did you ever printf the input? because there IS a # in the input for the 'Inquisition' test:

"www.Inquisition.com/Spanish/?page=42#nobody-expects-it"

LOL! that's a certified facepalm, thanks @stɛffan153. But hey @noexcuses, I still want to see your code to help you out so I can resolve this issue.

@rowcased It looks confusing, but the link you say is broken (it is) is the submitted value itself. It's not a link to the submitted value ;)
You know, this kata has to do with urls.

Hi @noexcuses, I did the translation to C and I will be happy to examine your code, but those links didn't work. Please post your code with proper markdown (also click on the spoiler tag) and I'll take a look.

Your function thinks zero is odd?
