If a robot is traveling on a north heading at v1 inches per second and has the ability to only make N degree changes in direction (left or right) each second, what is the unobstructed distance required to the right or left of the robot to make the turn (i.e., the turn radius)? Round to 2 places

Problem wording clearly suggests discrete changes in the heading ("make N degree changes in direction each second"), but the test suite contradicts this.
I concur with Gergely, the problem description is misleading. What is meant here is not that the robot is making a single, discrete N degree turn each second, but rather that it turns continuously while moving at a rate of N degrees per second.
