I am pretty sure it is a bug. i have posted about the issue in the challenges forum. the goal is to calculate the hash value of the info dictionary. i wrote somthing that is working both on the sample torrent and 1 test, but the second test says the program calculated an incorrect hash.on the other forum that i have posted the issue i have been told to sort the info keys.
i have sorted them in the order like the sample.torrent and in the website so:
length
name
piece length
pieces
but still when i hash this info dictionary from this specific torrent, i get an incorrect hash, although my code did well hashing the sample.torrent and another test. i have included the info dictionary contents in the output so you can have a look:
