Do not overthink it. Write what comes naturally.\n\nRound 2: Now critique Round 1 ruthlessly. Identify every weakness: performance bottlenecks, edge cases missed, code style issues, memory problems with large input. Then write an improved version that fixes every issue you identified.\n\nRound 3: Critique Round 2 with the same rigor. Find the remaining weaknesses. Write the final version. It must handle 10GB+ text files with constant memory usage.\n\nAfter all 3 rounds: Score each version 1-10 on correctness, performance, and robustness.
