I am in the same situation now. Do you have any tip on what to look out for?

Edit: After posting the spoilers from moonberry where revealed. It was indeed related to limit and suppress

Those tests have been removed now.

You still have to wrap the function, to maintain backwards compatibility, but you don't have to define additional unrelated objects anymore.

\u002a\u002f\ equals */, which ends the comment. Then the rest is some code that loads a jar that contains some code that modifies the JVM and passes the tests.

Check out my solution: https://www.codewars.com/kata/reviews/59ea23a2772999e9fa001b2f/groups/5d9fa0a3e1cd9d000193fa43
Also with Java 9 I would have done it slightly different, involving Stream.interate() with the Predicate.

Easy to do - satisfies requirements. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks.

I'm sorry but I can't find it. Where do you mean?

Pretty sure it does not require any code transforms, so it can be solved for any kind of tail recursion.

Man I really wish codewars had Java 9, there are some stream improvements that I think could help. Will work on this kata soon :)

LOL - Looking at the other solutions, it seems I overthunk this one :-(

There will be no tests with infinite series of equal elements.

So we won't encounter a case where this happens.
