I found this challenge quite interesting. It really made me think about the different ways to approach the problem. I'm looking forward to seeing the solutions from others!

thanks for the info

Why you can apply these calculations in practical terms. I enjoy studying algebra analytics because I often use formulas when doing sports prediction calculations. You can see something similar here - https://1xbet.com.gh/ Any analyst must be a good psychologist and a good mathematician. This gives the most reliable result.

I used this recursive code but not passing all test cases:

def hrank(x, k):
    if 0 <= x < k:
        return 1
    elif (x >= k) and (x % k == 0):
        return (hrank(x - k, k) + hrank(x / k, k))
    else:
        return hrank(x-1, k)


k, x = map(int, raw_input().split()) 

print hrank(x, k)
