    1...n-1 means that this array's length can be any possible.
    i.e. n = 10, that means that this array has 9 elements.
    typical shcools math's formula to discribe infinity

    A[1...n-1]

    So is it zero-indexed or one-indexed?

    why is this under dynamic programming?

    The random tests aren't random, they all always expect -1. Even better, they also accept undefined ?!?

    I'm the F# and OCaml translator, so any suggestions for those could be tossed my way. :)

    That's a good criticism; I was "following along" with the Javascript translation and didn't think to check how the Haskell translation worked.

    That being said, I found that having the signature as a list actually made my solution simpler. Although I suppose that's subjective ;)

    Try to print() the input and figure out what it should return and how it should behave...

    Hello. I tried solving this kata in Python. It passed 7 basic tests and then gives a stderr saying that an 'int' object is not subsciptable. I copied the whole function and tried in Python IDLE (Python 3.4.4). I gave it all the signature inputs specified in the basic tests. It didn't give me any kind of error. What has been going wrong?

    Nice test cases.

    The description should say what to do if there is no magic in the array (-1 should be returned).

  • Custom User Avatar

    I think it needs test for zero index, e.g. findMagic([0, 5, 5]) === 0.

    I'm not sure about that because the description says array A[1...n-1].
    Why the first index in the array is 1?
    Does it mean that magic index is always >= 1?
    If so, it should be more clear.

    Thanks for feedback. Added some random tests.
