Reply To: Yet another 10B question

Okay so to develop on this, today’s (Tuesday) hint implies that the groups of the characters surpasses sequences of three, instead, is all about storing the previous data. But I still have an issue, it suggests initially that the data goes up to 7056 of each character and that there is 21000 so vertical groups of three (which would encode for far too many characters!). Personally, I believe I am interpreting the hint wrong, and that there might be a modulus after to cut the number 7056 down to one digit or so or the data is interpreted, as matrixes are, in a 3×3.

I really don’t know anymore, but I am glad that the creators have give until the 27th for the next point reduction. However, I am a bit disappointed with myself for doing incredibly well so far, only to be completely stumped by this final challenge part B.

Have a Happy Holidays!
