Here is a Python translation for you.

bless the person who thinks that this kata is 1 kyu

It was a mistake, I didn't intend to do that. I apologize and I hope I don't get banned for this. I love Codewars.

Alright. Thank you for approving.

I'm learning to document everything I do and explain it in a way that a wide range of audiences can understand, even those who don't understand anything about programming, so it may seem like I write like an AI. By the way, I've already seen it, everything is correct. Thanks for your contribution.

I fixed the discrepancies mentioned in the translation. If you approve of it, you can navigate to it and hit "approve" to merge it with your kata.

Just a question — do you speak with GPT? No judgment, but I have never seen that before.

Looks better to me!

Here are a couple of points to consider:

Misleading Test Description in Random Tests for Invalid Inputs: In the random tests for invalid inputs, the description currently reads "Should return true for random invalid inputs." This is misleading because for invalid inputs, the test should clearly indicate that false is expected. Adjusting this description will help clarify the intended behavior.

Stylistic Aspects: Although using string.find is perfectly acceptable for verifying the input format, some might prefer string.match as it can enhance readability when simply checking for a pattern match. This is a matter of style and does not affect the correctness of the solution.

These points are relatively minor, but addressing them can improve the clarity and overall quality of your test suite.

Hello,

I wanted to let you know that I have completely remodeled the test suite structure based in my own design and your valuable feedback. I stand by my approach:

Fixed edge cases: I still include tests for specific valid DNIs (like "00000001R" and "99999999R") so that the expected behavior is crystal clear.

500 Random Tests: I intentionally kept 500 random tests (for both valid and invalid cases) because it dramatically lowers the risk of a solution passing by pure chance. In many similar katas, fewer random tests allow some candidates to pass accidentally by playing around with random inputs, which is something I wanted to avoid.

Clear error messages: I’ve refined the assertion messages so that every failure clearly states what the result was versus what was expected.

If you’re curious, feel free to take a look at the complete test suite.

Here's a Lua translation for you.

Under testLettersOutsideValidRange(), you state that "12345678Z" should return false in the error message, but assert that is true (of which is the correct assertion). Slight discrepancy, nothing severe.

500 valid and invalid random tests is overkill. 40 each should suffice, but even that is pushing it a little. Again, not severe.

Besides that, all of your fixed tests are for false assertions. I would reccommend adding some fixed tests that expect true to be returned.

This exercise has a good concept, but several aspects could be improved. First, the specification of function returns is unclear, which can lead to confusion, especially when dealing with recursive calls. Additionally, jump instructions and labels need more details, such as what to do if a label is undefined. There’s also a lack of proper validation for instruction parameters and error management. It would be helpful if the prompt provided more details on handling spaces, comments in the code, and how to properly concatenate values in the msg instruction.
