Rats. My solution got all the problems right except the last. How is that possible?

William, our results differ for a starting value of 570. I'm not sure why yet.

William, I think I see the reason for the difference now. Let me know if you want a hint.

Aha! I see the problem with 570. Very clever of you to include a case like that!

Thanks but I'd say I was more lucky than clever. A run of periods drew me to that range. You're right that the case of 570 is a good one.
