There are some problems with the test suite. Problems 3 and 5 have too many square brackets on the right, and Problem 4 uses a matrix that exceeds the preferred matrix dimensions.

I find the exact same problem with the test suite.

David Motson on 5 Nov 2019

Please correct the test suite. I believe that I have submitted a correct solution

Test 3 and 5 - invalid square brackets
Test 4 - array is too big, L = 1000; W = 119; would work the same way
