Kristofer Koishigawa 6cfd0fc503 fix: improve Project Euler descriptions, challenge seeds, and test cases (#38016)
* fix: improve Project Euler descriptions and test case

Improve formatting of Project Euler test descriptions. Also add poker hands array and new test case for problem 54

* feat: add typeof tests and gave functions proper names for first 100 challenges

* fix: continue fixing test descriptions and adding "before test" sections

* fix: address review comments

* fix: adjust grids in 18 and 67 and fix some text that reference files rather than the given arrays

5900f3ba1000cf542c50fecd 5 Problem 78: Coin partitions 302191

Description

Let p(n) represent the number of different ways in which n coins can be separated into piles. For example, five coins can be separated into piles in exactly seven different ways, so p(5)=7.

Coin piles
OOOOO
OOOO   O
OOO   OO
OOO   O   O
OO   OO   O
OO   O   O   O
O   O   O   O   O

Find the least value of n for which p(n) is divisible by one million.

Instructions

Tests

tests:
  - text: <code>coinPartitions()</code> should return a number.
    testString: assert(typeof coinPartitions() === 'number');
  - text: <code>coinPartitions()</code> should return 55374.
    testString: assert.strictEqual(coinPartitions(), 55374);

Challenge Seed

function coinPartitions() {
  // Good luck!
  return true;
}

coinPartitions();

Solution
