Thoughts:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Avoid iterating seen elements by consuming the list, and comparing each list element only to the remaining
|
|
|
|
|
elements.

Thoughts:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use a comprehension over two versions of the remaining list to efficiently compare the three items.

|
|
|
Would have been simpler to use a comprehension for all 3 elements (and for the 2 elements from part 1)
|
|
|
|
|
rather than using recursion for the outer loop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
E.g.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for i <- list, j <- list, k <- list, do: ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
