This no question to the Problem 955 (View Problem)
In the first approach I read the problem and asked myself: „What the hell is a triangle number?“. A few lines later, there was a hint for the red marked numbers in the example.
I tried to find a algo for this.
At this state I copied the problem description (html-sign in right corner of problem box) to my markup box in Jupyter and wondered why I get a different text in comparison to the html-view in Safari (MAC).
So I discovered that there is a popup box describing the calculation for a triangle number in the web view.
For me this was a new behavior in describing problems.
Wouldn’t it be better if this triangle description was visible directly in the problem description?
Yesterday evening this popup was not popping up (I don’t know why). Today it will. Strange.
