Seems that the test cases are not allowing all correct solutions. Eg for solve24(‘1234’) a valid solution like (1+2+3)*4 is not accepted.

I have the same problem, and it’s saddening.
solve24("4878") should return (7-8/8)*4 or 4*(7-8/8)
while my function is returning
(7*8)-(4*8)

Yeah, I got the same problem… I think the tests are poorly written, actually… the correct way to test this function is with the
eval() function, checking if eval of the output maps to 24, and that the digits are there… the way the tests were written is very poor
