You'll have to do better than 128 lines, I think, to fit the length requirement. And this was really the author's point. Had you estimated a solution that'd take a few seconds to code using fmt, your estimate would be blown away by reality. Not only would have gone down a rabbit hole (which actually happens quite a lot in software development), but you'd still not have a working solution.
