@depperm,I'm not sure why you would mark this as resolved. The kata is still not compatible with Python 2.
I copied the suggested fix to the solution, and just barely to the Test Cases
@depperm,Yep, the problem was you didn't add the lines to the solution in
Test Cases. Seems to work fine for Python 2 now.Thanks!
Do you want to say a little more about which apportionment method your kata is using, how you're supposed to handle rounding, whether each zone starts with one representative and then the remaining are distributed proportionally, or whether they are distributed proportionally and then any zones with zero get one from the zone with the largest number of representatives, etc.?
I agree, this kata seems to be more about: "find out how the author rounded numbers"...
I added a clarifying bullet point, does this help or is more needed?
Thanks, that helped, I solved it now. :-) Part it was just that you've got the Python 3 banker's rounding going, where .5 gets rounded to the nearest even number rather than rounded up, which is why your first example comes out as [5,3,2,10] rather than [5,3,3,9]. Which I guess is more and more the standard rounding behavior, so I need to get used to it!
