+Did you get the tests passing and the code clean? If you want to, these are some
+additional things you could try:
+
+* Remove as much duplication as you possibly can.
+* Optimize for readability, even if it means introducing duplication.
+* If you've removed all the duplication, do you have a lot of conditionals? Try
+  finding ways to reduce or remove them. How does this affect your code's
+  readability? It's performance?
+
+Then please share your thoughts in a comment on the submission. Did this
+experiment make the code better? Worse? Did you learn anything from it?
