Hi Lily,

The function sepWithN is not a native function to Ibex or PCIbex: what definition do you use? Using this definition, your code (with 5) works perfectly for me:

function SepWithN(sep, main, n) {
    this.args = [sep,main];

    this.run = function(arrays) {
        assert(arrays.length == 2, "Wrong number of arguments (or bad argument) to SepWithN");
        assert(parseInt(n) > 0, "N must be a positive number");
        let sep = arrays[0];
        let main = arrays[1];

        if (main.length <= 1)
            return main;
            
        else {
            let newArray = [];
            while (main.length){
                for (let i = 0; i < n && main.length>0; i++)
                    newArray.push(main.shift());
                for (let j = 0; j < sep.length; ++j)
                    newArray.push(sep[j]);
            }
            return newArray;
        }
    };
}
function sepWithN(sep, main, n) { return new SepWithN(sep, main, n); }

NB: since you have PennController.ResetPrefix(null) at the top of your script, you don't need to have the PennController. prefix on any of the commands below, ie you can replace PennController.Sequence with Sequence, PennController.CheckPreloaded with CheckPreloaded, and so on
