Six zeroes, right? Five zeroes makes one hundred thousand. Six makes a million. Or am I missing something?

You need to make it under one million

This is an example of the gotcha this test did, you can read the question two different ways. Making the number below the question one million, or making the number itself below one million.

Oh, Jesus. I read "below" to mean it was referring to the number directly "below" the instructions. I didn't even consider that it could be read another way. Fuck everything about that test.

Shit, you're right. It has 2 gotchas at least just in that one question
