Hey @dylanbatar, could you [upload your code to GitHub](https://docs.codecrafters.io/features/publish-to-github) and share the link? It will be much easier to debug if I can run it directly.

@dylanbatar, the bug is in this line:

 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/codecrafters/original/2X/f/f49453168b73f6ef2d204561f60eb0aa0dcd4630.png)

The issue is clear after logging out `path`:

When `path` is an absolute path, concatenating the current directory with it doesn’t make much sense.

Let me know if you’d like further clarification!
