My friend sent me some Python code, but something tells me he was hungry when he wrote it. Do you think you can put your reverse engineering skills to use and get it to output the flag?

    In case you are lost, renaming the variables could be helpful.

    This was a little harder on me than the hard binary Reversing challenge I did earlier. Don't RE much python. Renaming some of the variables and function names, once I figured out what they did helped me. Use PyCharm or WingIDE to help with debugging.

    in the function "EAt(eat, eats):". I've insect a string builder that adds 1 for the first if and 2 for else. I end up with a sequence that let me reconstruct the sequence "E10a23t9090t9ae0140". I had to increment one position manually and after a few try, I found the answer.

    great challenge, I was too lazy too figure out the first 3 digits, so I ended up brute forcing them, still very enjoyable
