you might as well just post it here. there's no reason for the challenge alone to be private, and that way you can have other people help, and some people could even try to solve it themselves

Timestamp:
sure then

i'm having a bit of a problem with this kata:

--- Code: ---In this kata you get the start number and the end number of a region and should return the count of all numbers except numbers with a 5 in it. The start and the end number are both inclusive!

Examples:

1,9 -> 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9 -> Result 8
4,17 -> 4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,16,17 -> Result 12
The result may contain fives. ;-)
The start number will always be smaller than the end number. Both numbers can be also negative!

--- End code ---

i was thinking about something like making a list such as this:

--- Code: ---def dont_give_me_five(start,end):
   n = []
   if n == 5:
   n.remove()
   return n # amount of numbers
--- End code ---

i'm guessing it's not entirely correct but that's what i did try\

you could say i got some idea, but the execution is bad lol

Headcrab Zombie:
It says remove all numbers with a five in it, not just five
So 15, 25, 52, etc

You'll want a for loop for each number n between start and end,
if n does not contain 5, increment a counter
