Fun article, thank-you!

I wrote a few solutions of my own before reading over yours just to do a comparison, and while I didn't hit 100% on any of them, they were fairly performant. However, something that was really interesting is just how inconsistent leetcode's solution runner is. My reverseVowels solution would swing between the 98th and 50th percentile with no changes to the code itself.

Did you run your solutions multiple times and experience a similar variation, or were they consistently in the 100th percentile?

Yes, I experienced a lot of variation! Since the only way I could compare my answers to existing answers was the recorded 100th percentile, that’s what I chose to measure my own.
