The affine cipher is a type of monoalphabetic substitution cipher.
66
Each character is mapped to its numeric equivalent, encrypted with a mathematical function and then converted to the letter relating to its new numeric value.

Although all monoalphabetic ciphers are weak, the affine cipher is much stronger than the atbash cipher, because it has many more keys.

Given a target word and one or more candidate words, your task is to find the candidates that are anagrams of the target.
44

55
An anagram is a rearrangement of letters to form a new word: for example `"owns"` is an anagram of `"snow"`.
66
A word is _not_ its own anagram: for example, `"stop"` is not an anagram of `"stop"`.

The target and candidates are words of one or more ASCII alphabetic characters (`A`-`Z` and `a`-`z`).
9-
Lowercase and uppercase characters are equivalent: for example, `"PoTS"` is an anagram of `"sTOp"`, but `StoP` is not an anagram of `sTOp`.
10-
The anagram set is the subset of the candidate set that are anagrams of the target (in any order).
11-
Words in the anagram set should have the same letter case as in the candidate set.

Create an implementation of the Atbash cipher, an ancient encryption system created in the Middle East.
44

55
The Atbash cipher is a simple substitution cipher that relies on transposing all the letters in the alphabet such that the resulting alphabet is backwards.
66
The first letter is replaced with the last letter, the second with the second-last, and so on.

The Collatz Conjecture or 3x+1 problem can be summarized as follows:
4-
5-
Take any positive integer n.
6-
If n is even, divide n by 2 to get n / 2.
7-
If n is odd, multiply n by 3 and add 1 to get 3n + 1.
8-
Repeat the process indefinitely.
9-
The conjecture states that no matter which number you start with, you will always reach 1 eventually.
10-
11-
Given a number n, return the number of steps required to reach 1.
12-
13-
## Examples
14-
15-
Starting with n = 12, the steps would be as follows:
16-
17-
0. 12
18-
1. 6
19-
2. 3

7. 4
25-
8. 2
26-
9. 1
27-
28-
Resulting in 9 steps.
29-
So for input n = 12, the return value would be 9.

Given a positive integer, return the number of steps it takes to reach 1 according to the rules of the Collatz Conjecture.

# Introduction
2+
3+
One evening, you stumbled upon an old notebook filled with cryptic scribbles, as though someone had been obsessively chasing an idea.
4+
On one page, a single question stood out: **Can every number find its way to 1?**
5+
It was tied to something called the **Collatz Conjecture**, a puzzle that has baffled thinkers for decades.
6+
7+
The rules were deceptively simple.
8+
Pick any positive integer.
9+
10+
- If it's even, divide it by 2.
11+
- If it's odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1.
12+
13+
Then, repeat these steps with the result, continuing indefinitely.
14+
15+
Curious, you picked number 12 to test and began the journey:
16+
17+
12 ➜ 6 ➜ 3 ➜ 10 ➜ 5 ➜ 16 ➜ 8 ➜ 4 ➜ 2 ➜ 1
18+
19+
Counting from the second number (6), it took 9 steps to reach 1, and each time the rules repeated, the number kept changing.
20+
At first, the sequence seemed unpredictable — jumping up, down, and all over.
21+
Yet, the conjecture claims that no matter the starting number, we'll always end at 1.
22+
23+
It was fascinating, but also puzzling.
24+
Why does this always seem to work?
25+
Could there be a number where the process breaks down, looping forever or escaping into infinity?
26+
The notebook suggested solving this could reveal something profound — and with it, fame, [fortune][collatz-prize], and a place in history awaits whoever could unlock its secrets.

Compute a way to order a given set of domino stones so that they form a correct domino chain.
6+
In the chain, the dots on one half of a stone must match the dots on the neighboring half of an adjacent stone.
7+
Additionally, the dots on the halves of the stones without neighbors (the first and last stone) must match each other.

For example given the stones `[2|1]`, `[2|3]` and `[1|3]` you should compute something

# Introduction
2+
3+
In Toyland, the trains are always busy delivering treasures across the city, from shiny marbles to rare building blocks.
4+
The tracks they run on are made of colorful domino-shaped pieces, each marked with two numbers.
5+
For the trains to move, the dominoes must form a perfect chain where the numbers match.
6+
7+
Today, an urgent delivery of rare toys is on hold.
8+
You've been handed a set of track pieces to inspect.
9+
If they can form a continuous chain, the train will be on its way, bringing smiles across Toyland.
10+
If not, the set will be discarded, and another will be tried.
11+
12+
The toys are counting on you to solve this puzzle.
13+
Will the dominoes connect the tracks and send the train rolling, or will the set be left behind?
