[Tolly Kulczycki]

so I'm doing fine when tackling the test input with 10 and 100

[Tolly Kulczycki]

so I dunno why it'd be wrong here

[Johannes Gätjen]

What order of magnitude solution size are you expecting? 😉

[Tolly Kulczycki]

Right

[Tolly Kulczycki]

It was just too big for int

[Tolly Kulczycki]

ehhhh

[Tolly Kulczycki]

Should've checked that first

[Tolly Kulczycki]

Thanks for pointing it out

[Tolly Kulczycki]

works now

[Tolly Kulczycki]

just had to convert to Longs

[Tolly Kulczycki]

I swear the Longs lobby is strong this year

[Johannes Gätjen]

👍 classic.
In my solution template I have return type as Long by default just to remind myself that I might need to change it.

[Jonathan Kolberg]

Yeah common wisdom is, every solution should be able to be computed in Long

[ephemient]

though if you're compiling Kotlin to JS, Long is significantly slower as it needs to be emulated instead of doing through Number
