Why don't you all look at the code(python and C), and tell me how much
code it took to write the functions the other's examples made use of
to complete the task.

Just because you can use a function, and make it look easier, doesn't
mean the function you used had less code than mine, so if you look at
the whole of what you used to make it simpler, mine was on point.
