It seems to me that kyu lvl does not match at least for python)

Read the post just below yours.

I dont understand what should i return, map or array?

Java : description asks for a Map<String, int> but tests expect an int[].

I find it a bit too easy for a 5kyu, and the java solution returns an int array, not a Map<String,int> I think it needs to be updated, it's deceiving

Map<String, int> seems clear to me. Moreover in case you have a doubt about the output, you should have a look at test cases to see examples. Here it's easy to see you have to return a dictionary/map and not a function.

Oh, in other news, since I "cheated" the first time to see the solutions (in an effort to see why my result wasn't being accepted) I've since done several variations I've saved in VScode. In that sense, this has been really educational to play around with different outputs.

I don't understand what's your problem. Which changes would you suggest to improve the description?

For the longest time I didn't understand what was going on. The explanation of Map<string,int> in the description is really really misleading for JavaScript, which actually makes you do horrificly verbose stuff as a beginner giving this a shot.

It's actually super simple, except for the output having to be absolutely specific with such misleading directions. Once I figured out what it was asking for, it finally accepted my code. I had to work around the solutions being locked to actually see what the issue was, though.

thank you, i was sure i was not returning the correct object. i was able to do it ;))

You must return a dictionary, not a tuple, not a string, nor print anything. Have a look at the test cases.

im having a problem with the output
python!
error message:
Example Tests
Log
{'r': 255, 'g': 153, 'b': 51}
None should equal {'r': 255, 'g': 153, 'b': 51}

im getting the right results but once i try to return it in the mandatory format its giving me an error.
im returning a print of a string using format to have the 3 values of the tuple in the correct place.
can anyone explain what the "return an object" means if it isnt suposed to return a string with the correct syntax?

Nice kata, but it would be better if it was 6th or even 7th kyu.

Completed in C. Looking through other solutions... here I am doing things the manual way! haha facepalm
