Nice kata! I was finally able to solve it. My first attempt was two years ago, and I failed 3 or 4 times in the past. xD

I agree, I had a similar thought myself.

Your solution is almost correct, but it returns the powers of 2 in the wrong order — from largest to smallest, while the task requires sorting in ascending order (from smallest to largest).

this kata has specs that allow for this solution:

0 <= x <= 4
0 <= y <= 4

while yeah, it is unlike a real-world situation, it doesn't matter here

if the score goes beyond single digits this will not work

I don't understand why this works but it doesn't work when I tried:
a, b = b[::-1], a[::-1]
They are still storing the correct values

Great idea! I had fun writing the query, t'was quite challanging.

Ts is smart asf

Who on earth writes O(n) solutions for O(1) problems

No, there are performance requirements.

Hard to solve this kata, I had to skip.
