    4 calls to len is not best practice.

    • resolved an issue on "Reorder Array" kata
    • 8 years ago

    The sort order is determined by the Numpy function that is used to solve this kata.

    https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.13.0/reference/routines.sort.html#sorting

    This is not a difficult kata.

    • resolved an issue on "Reorder Array 2" kata
    • 8 years ago

    reorder(10,1) == [[4, 0, 1, 2, 3], [9, 5, 6, 7, 8]]

    It is pretty obvious that the range is from 0 to 9 split into two sub arrays which are rotated by 1.

    Thanks for that valid comment. I have updated the kata description to include more details.

    This kata focuses on the Numpy python package and you can read up on the Numpy sorting functions here: https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.13.0/reference/routines.sort.html#sorting

    You should use Numpy to solve this kata.
