MODERATORS
Thanks for the detailed explanation. It helped a lot, especially what the
tblactually holds.I've read your code again and I get how it works, but it still feels kinda strange that we are considering values outside of range of
aandb, and that we are marking them as correct. Like in first row of the example???.### 1,1,3, there is no spring at8and no group at3but we are marking(8,3)and(7,3)as correct. In my mind, first position that should be marked as correct is4,2, because that's where group of 3 can fit.If you make the recurrent case a little more complicated, you can sidestep the weird base cases, but I like reducing the endpoints down to things like this that are easily implementable, even if they sound a little weird at first.
You are probably right. Just my rumblings. Thanks for the help.
