Loading collection data...
Collections are a way for you to organize kata so that you can create your own training routines. Every collection you create is public and automatically sharable with other warriors. After you have added a few kata to a collection you and others can train on the kata contained within the collection.
Get started now by creating a new collection.
I only have 1 crucial comment, and the rest are suggestions:
using namespace std
from the solution setup + all test code. By baking it in there, it leaves the solver no choice to opt out of it. It's harmless for it be in your own solution snippet, but remove it elsewhere in the very least.do_test
as it stands is just a wrapper overAssert::That
without a message; it's not very useful and I suggest adding anExtraMessage
too. I think the preloaded code section is reserved for code that may be also called by the user's solution; assertions don't fall under that category since the user shouldn't interact with the testing framework. I see no reason whydo_test
should be in preloaded; remove it from there and put it in the submission tests instead. For fixed tests, you can either hardcode theExtraMessage
or use a stringifier likefmt::format
. For random tests, usefmt::format
. In summary, for random tests you can do: And you can simply hardcode the strings for the sample tests.default_random_engine generator(chrono::system_clock::now().time_since_epoch().count());
can be changed tostd::mt19937 engine{ std::random_device{} };
It's a bit easier on the eyes (with the superficial added bonus thatstd::mt19937
is more random).arr2.push_back(arr1.back() + randomValue());
? Won'tarr2.push_back(randomValue());
simply do?The
ISSUE
tag is reserved for critical flaws with the tests. 718 people have solved this Kata in JS before just fine, so, when in doubt, please use theQUESTION
tag instead. As for your question, the code inside your loop needs correction. Instead of focusing on the complicated test that fails, focus on the other more simple test that the solution fails on:f: abcd s: dabcd
returnsabcd
for you when it should returnabcdabcd
. This is a byproduct of the method you use to calculateindexInSecond
.Yes, the issue resutls from your code misunderstanding the task. The only overlap that this Kata is interested in is between the end of the first string and the start of the other. A string overlapping in the middle of the other doesn't count. As you've noticed,
merge_strings('xabc', 'ab')
is expected to returnxabcab
(since no overlap on the edges), and notxabc
. Consult the Kata description further if in doubtCyclicRef
is unneeded in JavaScript, no? I don't even think the translator's used it.Seeing that you've eventually solved this without segfaults, do you wish to resolve the outstanding issue or is there something still unresolved?
C++ Translation.
The C++ setup leaves much to be desired. Only one of
int
andunsigned int
should be used, not both. The more appropriate pattern to use here is a namespace or a class with static methods, rather than a once-instantiated class in PascalCase (which variables should not be named in).Avoid global variables. They add state between function calls that you may have not anticipated. Your function works on your machine likely because you are only testing one call per program; in that respect, your function is correct. However, this global state interferes with all other calls beyond that first one. Restructure your code to not use global variables (recommended) or make sure you reset all global state on each call.

Kata is not well-defined for
decimal
values in the exclusive range (-0.005m
,0m
), such as0.001m.ToCurrency("$")
. Half the answers retain the negative sign and the others do not.This comment is hidden because it contains spoiler information about the solution
Random tests are exactly 40
[]
tests, followed by exactly 40()
tests. This seems pretty exploitable to me since the user might be able to pick up the pattern from the test logs. The simplest/quickest fix I can think of is editing thegenerateTestCases
to generate_.random(10, 13)
test cases for each scenario rather than the hardcoded 10. This way, there is no guarantee about the number of test cases for each scenario, making it harder to exploit.This comment is hidden because it contains spoiler information about the solution

If it fails the tests, then usually that just means there's a logic error in the code. This task is about returning the length of the repeated subsection of the sequence. Your solution is missing a tiny modification in a single place to pass all tests.
