# HotelRoomsKata
Given an input of a "hotel" in ASCII art with a single room marked, output the
room number according to certain rules.
Here's an example of an ASCII hotel:
##
##
##### ##
##### ###### ##
##### ###### ##
##### ###### ##
Here are a few more things about the ASCII hotels:
- Each "building" is represented by a rectangle of `#` characters, where each
`#` represents a "room".
- The above hotel consists of three buildings. Each building is separated by
two columns of spaces, and the lowest "floor" will always be on the last
line.
- Each building will always have anywhere from 1-9 "floors" (rows) and 1-9
"rooms" on each floor. There will also always be 1-9 buildings.
- Rooms are numbered as follows: `[building #][floor #][room on floor #]`. For
example, let's mark a few rooms in the above drawing:
##
##
##### ##
##### ####$# ##
##%## ###### ##
##### ###### #@
The room marked with the `%` is room 123 (building 1, floor 2, 3rd room on
floor). Similarly, the room marked with the `$` is room 235, and the `@` is
room 312.
- Buildings, floors, and "nth room on floor"s are always 1-indexed.
The input will consist of an ASCII hotel with a single room replaced with an
asterisk (`*`). This is the room for which you must output the room number. The
input must be taken as a single string, but you may use commas as line
separators instead of newlines (in case your language of choice cannot take
multiline input or if it's shorter to take single-line input). You may
optionally require a trailing comma/newline. You may also pad lines with
trailing spaces to make the input a complete rectangle.
