hahaha i didnt even know there was a built in min max function lol

the job is to make a user defined function, not the built-in function encapsulated as user defined functio----logic < buddy

I'm soooooo happy that I managed to do it this way too .
hahahaha

Nice kata 👍 I like how it gently pushes you toward thinking in terms of state rather than just a final result. Accumulating the sum step by step feels very natural here, and it’s a good reminder that simple ideas can still teach clean problem‑solving habits. Thanks for putting this together.

This kata isn’t really difficult, but it requires quite a number of different concepts, maybe a bit too many for a 7 kyu. I think it would fit better as a simple 6 kyu.

The description is a bit unclear on whether the returned string should include the final period. Clarifying this would help avoid confusion.

This problem still persists.

Finally, a kata that I managed to solve like everyone else! Now I feel Human.

W3schools has a good python reference, including a list of string methods.

lol vim is great

Yo brother this didnt worked for me i tried it only passed 3 tests and 1 was not passed and how it worked to you

welp there goes my for loop using range :')

Actually this solution is the best (in python). The complexity is only O(N) and doesn't require additional memory.

use of eval is unsafe in real projects:
eval takes a string and executes it as real Python code.That means if someone passes malicious input, it will run directly on your system.

If someone called:

basic_op("import('os').system('rm -rf /')", 0, 0)

That would try to delete all your files (because eval would literally execute the string as Python code).
It can run any code, not just math — so it’s a big security risk if inputs come from outside (like users of a web app).

I don't think it should return "they did well" in the case of there being 0 scores. Spec doesn't define what should happen there, and a lot of solutions would probably DIV0. Maybe the spec should say "r will always have at least one score in it"
