Problem 55235. Determine if x is a combination of m and n
- iscombo(17,3,5) should return true because 17 = 4*3 + 1*5
- iscombo(18,3,5) should return true because 18 = 6*3 + 0*5
- iscombo(7,3,5) should return false because 7 cannot be written as a combination of 3 & 5 (7 is not divisible by either 3 or 5 and 1*3 + 1*5 = 8)

The iscombo function is missing from test 3, which makes you wonder if the assert function is really paying attention.
The test cases have been sorted out individually and the solutions have been rescored.
The last test case still has "assert(a*m+b*n,m,n)" instead of "assert(iscombo(a*m+b*n,m,n))". Also, I found it more convenient to have the first test cases all together, as they were originally, to copy them more easily.
I understand your point Tim, however, individual test cases will help people to find where their code is failing.
I have corrected the last test case and rescored the solutions.
Thanks for catching and fixing that - internet cookies all round!
