  • I couldn't find a way to use underscores in the inner function :(. Explanation on its way.
  • ```scala
  • _ //The input
  • ./:( //Fold over it,
  • Seq[Int]() //starting with an empty list,
  • )( //using this function
  • (a,x) => //a is the accumulator, x is the current element
  • a:+x //Append x to a
  • dropRight //then drop an element from the right if x is 0
  • -x*2+2 //For 0, this is 2
  • //(drop the 0 that we just appended and the previous element)
  • //and for other numbers, it's negative, so it doesn't do anything
  • )
