Nice problem --- it could use a few more test cases though, especially corner cases like 1000, 1001, 1010 and so on.

Test cases have been added to the problem.

First time seeing the use of dictionary on Cody. Nice!

Christian Schröder on 26 Mar 2023 at 17:48

@Dyuman thanks! I've actually used them regularly --- a quick grep suggests they appear in my solutions for problems 53, 65, 213, 303, 639, 831, 980, 1203, 1378, 1686, 1696, 1836, 1889, 2147, 2153, 2162, 2186, 2227, 2447, 2508, 2524, 3053, 42316, 42370, 42613, 43668, 44293, 44669, 45262, 45365, 46913, 51675, 52298, and 56623 at least, though the list may be incomplete since I don't have all my solutions saved locally. Of these, solution 9223510 to problem 53, submitted on October 5 2022, is the oldest one I have that uses a dictionary.
