Even rand() has a probability distribution function! It's just a boring one. FWIW, I don't happen to know what the cases were like in Snapper Chain, but since with a straight rand() there'd be a low chance of ON, I imagine we did something more sophisticated. don't think Google generate the numbers in the input. They just change the > order of them every time you download one. > Actually, we really do generate a whole lot of different input files using a randomly-seeded generator, for every problem. Re-ordering wouldn't help anyone. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "google-codejam" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
