This is my today's attempt, but the web says my answer is wrong. I am pretty confident I should have it right, but I have no idea what is wrong though :-)), so it seems I am stuck for now ...

What exactly is that DateTime class? That's not in the standard lib is it?

[todd.ginsberg]

It’s in the java standard lib

[Joris PZ]

Is it? Can't for the life of me find it... Reason I ask is because maybe the to infix function includes the end datetime, when it shouldn't

while(sleeptime.isBefore.... It must be inclusive. Your code checks exclusively, right?

Nvm, I'm stupid. It must be exclusive.

It's good old Jodatime java library😊. I will try to check/change end time exclusivity and see if that was the issue.

Guys, you won't believe me, what was the actual error ... when I did DateTime(javaDate) it parsed original 1518-11-01 as a 1518-11-10 for whatever reason. So I had to parse the string manually right into DayTime and that fixed the issue. Probably it is some bug in the Jodatime library ... pretty nasty one 🙂, but I am happy I've moved on 😁

[Joris PZ]

Huh! That's quite the issue! Good find 🙂

[littlelightcz]

Btw I found out it is a good practice to try your code on those small examples first. There it is usually more apparent when there is something wrong 🙂

I always write the unit test first for these, which is just a function that takes a String array as input, the function to use, and the expected outcome
