Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Level 0 below 3000 ft, 1 for 3000-4999, 2 for 5000-6999, 3 at 7000+. Baking powder times (1-level/8); sugar times (1-level/16) (1 tbsp per cup per level); liquid times (1+3*level/32) (1.5 tbsp per cup per level); oven +15 F at levels 1-2 and +25 F at level 3. Amounts are fraction strings in and exact str(Fraction) out.

Why this case matters

Cake and quick-bread recipes need leavening, sugar, liquid and temperature changes at elevation.

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
