May 23, 2022 at 17:12 comment added Jonathan Allan The reason this does not work for test case 3 is that the encoded data does not end with exactly one "byte" of zeros. This, I believe, is a result of the linked (reverse) challenge having the specification "If the last byte is not 8 bits long, add zeros at the end till it is 8 bits long". Thus converting from base 256 loses the information of how many of the implicit zeros are leading vs trailing.

May 23, 2022 at 10:03 comment added emanresu A @KevinCruijssen Oh oops... that's happening because I forgot to deal with zeroes.
May 23, 2022 at 10:01 comment added Kevin Cruijssen Your result sometimes contains a trailing space? Your current test case contains a trailing space for example. And "6932", [137,147,16] contains a trailing space as well. (But not all of them do, because "a", [255] lacks that trailing space.)
