      Imo, I think the instructions could have more clear. I took a lot of time trying to dissect the problem as well.
      If the instructions were a bit more clear, I think this would have improved the quality of the problem.

      Your code is returning 9, it need to return -9.

      Read the Kata's description again.

      Without your code, we also don't know.

      • 4 years ago

      This:
      if x>y - 3 points
      if x<y - 0 point
      if x=y - 1 point

      should be rewritten as:

      if x>y add 3 points
      if x<y add 0 point
      if x==y add 1 point

      For a moment I thought I had to subtract :D

      The description of the kata is really poor literally spent almost 2 hrs figuring out and solving this with
      the most ugliest solution.
      also how is this 6kyu lol should be 5kyu imo
