    As mentioned below, don't put crucial testing function in Preloaded. Migrating them to test fixture is trivial, and saves from all kinds of shenanigans.

    After 140 code submission one jakber provided an actual solution (other 3 smart guys managed to cheat on my initial easy test fixture).
    Since jakber is 2kyu, I think that this kata should be 2kyu, too.
    What do you think?

    Thank you, this is a good idea.
    I update the description in order to match the Christmas theme better.

    I randomized the test fixture better. Now it should be almost impossible to cheat the test.
    I also added some sample fixture to help user test their code.

    Hi,
    thank for your suggestions. I added some randomness on x values, I'll add some randomness on functions as well so that you're cheat will no longer be a solutions.

    Typo corrected.

    Hi,
    I updated the test so that if you exceed the max number of calls to h it now shows you the value x that you where supposed to compute and the calls limit.

    It seems that this one is quite difficult... only one person managed to solve it in 2 hours and a half (out of more than 50 code submissions). But believe me, it is just 10 lines of code... you just have to think a little bit out of the box.
    C'mon guys!

    Ciao,
    Saverio.
