+/**
+ * 👋🏽 Hello there reader,
+ *
+ * It looks like you are working on this solution using the Exercism CLI and
+ * not the online editor. That's great! The file you are looking at executes
+ * the various steps the online test-runner also takes.
+ *
+ * @see https://github.com/exercism/typescript-test-runner
+ *
+ * TypeScript track exercises generally consist of at least two out of three
+ * types of tests to run.
+ *
+ * 1. tsc, the TypeScript compiler. This tests if the TypeScript code is valid
+ * 2. tstyche, static analysis tests to see if the types used are expected
+ * 3. jest, runtime implementation tests to see if the solution is correct
+ *
+ * If one of these three fails, this script terminates with -1, -2, or -3
+ * respectively. If it succeeds, it terminates with exit code 0.
+ *
+ * @note you need corepack (bundled with node LTS) enabled in order for this
+ *    test runner to work as expected. Follow the installation and test
+ *    instructions if you see errors about corepack or pnp.
