The second is right. The questions are always the same. Inputs and outputs are not different for C and C++. You can always choose the language you use. For example you can solve a part of the question with C and another part with Javascript. You only have to submit the output, and the code you used (.cpp, .c, ...) to get the output. Jam only asks for "preferred programming language" to have some statistics, you are not forced to use the language you selected.
To get solutions, in http://code.google.com/codejam/contest/ click Practice Contest, Full scoreboard, Solution Download, and choose a file. For example, in Practice Contest, try to solve Old Magician. One solution is http://codepad.org/ifN7eFOL compile it, click 'Download A-small.in' and run the program. It will create a A-small-practice.out file - submit it. In a normal contest, you must also submit the source code (usually the .cpp file). If you don't understand the question, maybe http://translate.google.com/ will help. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "google-codejam" group.
