| Mar 25, 2020 at 21:43 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | Yeah, I think the best thing would be to just guarantee the meal will contain at least one non-space character. | |

fix regex specification for the input meal

@JonathanAllan thanks for your feedback; the space character was to mimic the way we naturally write words (and hence meal names). As for the test case with only space characters, I would oppose to adding it because it corresponds to requesting no meal. The problem lies, then, in my specification for the meal as /[a-z ]+/ because I have to rule out the string with only spaces. ("Fixing" the reference implementation would mean adding a default argument to the min function.)

| Mar 25, 2020 at 21:16 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | ...furthermore, the reference implementation does not work when the meal is only spaces. | |
| Mar 25, 2020 at 21:09 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | ...and if it does serve a purpose, or you do not want to change it now you have 18 answers, then I think you should add a test where the meal is just space characters. | |
| Mar 25, 2020 at 21:05 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | What purpose does the space character have here? Seems like unnecessary fluff that will just have every answer have to filter out spaces. | |

| Mar 25, 2020 at 20:16 | comment | added | RGS | @DarrelHoffman you are absolutely right, I am embarrassed! Would you like to suggest a recipe, or should I take care of that? | |
| Mar 25, 2020 at 20:11 | comment | added | Darrel Hoffman | I'm disappointed that none of the example recipes involve copious amounts of spam. And your reference implementation is written in Python no less... | |

@OlivierGrégoire yes it does, the meal regex has a space next to the character range a-z!

cod fish (with a space) doesn't match the meal regex. Could you fix it?

Suggested test case: the one suggested above by @Xcali, or something like ['test','test'], tt -> 2. The suggested 4-byter in the comments of the 05AB1E answer works for all current test cases, but fails for these two test cases due to the duplicated letters.

Suggest something like ['some', 'bountiful', 'bagful', 'of', 'ingredients', 'here', 'are', 'bliss'] bolognese -> 1 as a test case, since it makes the duplicated letter the limiting factor, and includes an incomplete portion for a recipe (3 os total, 2 needed for a recipe).

| Mar 24, 2020 at 19:33 | comment | added | Value Ink | I (and my program) counted 4 "or" in "there are some random words wow" because there are 4 "o" and 4 "r", but your case says 3? What am I missing? | |

| Mar 24, 2020 at 19:31 | comment | added | the default. | @RGS Imagine a comma-separated list without commas. (in fact, a comma-separated list will also often work similarly to a normal list of characters) Is it intended that in the examples, no meal uses the same character twice? | |
| Mar 24, 2020 at 19:25 | comment | added | RGS | The point here is that the ingredient list does represent a list, so I don't know if I'm comfortable allowing that. | |
