[gcj] Keeping old rounds open for training?

I would recommend publishing test files after the round. For the interactive this is insufficient but if the testing code is reasonably independent we could ask it be published as well after the round. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Code

Re: [gcj] Keeping old rounds open for training?

Hmm, that does seem like a simple thing to do in the meantime. Of course, I don't know how far they are from being able to open up practice on old contests; if they're feeling like that's close enough, maybe they don't want to send out the input files just yet. On Wed, Apr 11, 2018 at 4:39 AM

[gcj] Would it be too much to ask for the addition of Crystal compiler support?

Hello, In Google Code Jam 2018 we are unable to run code locally and freely use the compilers and programming languages of our choice anymore. Instead we have to to pick one of the programming languages from the following list: Bash, C, C++, C# (mono), Go, Haskell (ghc), Java 8, Javascript

[gcj] Show the points in in problems tab, not only after submit them

Show points in in problems tab, not only after submitting them. Like in another test, exam, etc. When you should know how many points as any problem. You should add 5pt/10pt to the users evaluate what to do first. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Re: [gcj] The Qual Round is over!

Yeah for these large datasets I find it best to write your own test cases and see how your algorithm run against them. Even np.random.randint(0,1e9,1e5) or something of the sort works well to see how fast (or slow) your algorithm runs. On Sun, Apr 8, 2018, 16:41 Felix Voituret

[gcj] Re: Finding another competitor on the score board?

I just patched some simple site with multiple user search and country filter https://codejam.herokuapp.com/ there are lot of things that can be improved and added i.e. currently penalty times for tasks are not completely correct, penalty submissions are not displayed etc. Naturally it is

Re: [gcj] Would it be too much to ask for the addition of Crystal compiler support?

Hi, To answer your actual question: yes it is a significant amount of work to install this compiler (or any other). Unfortunately is not as easy as just installing the right packages on your computer. We'll add languages and libraries for the current languages in time, prioritizing what was used

Re: [gcj] Show the points in in problems tab, not only after submit them

That's a good idea. There's a whole collection of strategic information like that -- information you might use to figure out which problems to do, and in what order -- that's only on the scoreboard now. It's reasonable to have all that information in one place, except that the problem descriptions

Re: [gcj] Keeping old rounds open for training?

Hi, We definitely aim to do this or something really similar in the near future, but in-competition functionality have priority for obvious reasons. We are planning to have a practice session in between R1A and R1B so you can try the problems from QR and R1A, we'll publish exact dates and format

[gcj] Saving the universe again - Why my code failed in the test set 2?

Hello, I have participated in the codejam for the first time. My solution for the problem passed for test set 1 but failed for test set 2. But from the analysis it seems correct to me. Why it failed? Here is my code - https://gist.github.com/aagontuk/e5f4e7f30b2481d96a418882f8a2fa7e I don't

[gcj] Did you guys intentionally break the old practice problems

As recently as 3 weeks ago, we could download short and long inputs for the older problems (<=2017), and we could upload outputs and check the results. Now, it seems that all we have are the old problem statements. The input files and output files checking are gone. Was this change

Re: [gcj] Did you guys intentionally break the old practice problems

Hi, David, Thanks for reporting this -- we definitely didn't intend to remove this functionality. I think this is the result of a bug impacting a subset of users; I'll look into it right away. Sorry for the inconvenience. - Ian On Mon, Apr 9, 2018 at 4:21 PM, David Bradley

[gcj] Continuation of the solutions submission after the round is over

Hello, One of the most entertaining features of Google Code Jam (at least for me) used to be the possibility to still continue trying to solve the problems and check if the solutions are correct in the training mode even after the round is over. Of course, trying to avoid any spoilers while doing

[gcj] Fourth task in qualification round is not actually a programming/algorithmization problem

First three tasks include some optimizations, working with arrays, etc. Meanwhile, fourth task is the pure geometric problem, which takes a couple of lines of code which are just mirror for geometric formulas and nothing with optimization. Is it normal for Google Code Jam to include such

[gcj] Is the use of numpy matrices allowed or not?

Hello everybody I've used Python 3 to solve the problems and is not clear if it is allowed or not to use basic standard libraries as numpy to solve them. I've modelled my data for the Go Gopher! problem as a numpy matrix (just for indexing convenience) and got a "Runtime Error". After changing

Re: [gcj] The Qual Round is over!

There could be a reasonable solution of the problem with testing Hidden after you have solved the Visible. What if the platform would allow the participant to download the whole visible dataset as soon as he has solved it? He has earned the points for his submission of Visible, why not to open

The problem statement: "We are thinking of an integer P within the range (A,B] — that is, A < P ≤ B. You have N tries to guess our number. After each guess that is not correct, we will tell you whether P is higher or lower than your guess." In this program, A (inclusive) and B (exclusive)

Read the question again. You did something very different from what the question asked for. You are to do the guesses instead of outputting those TOO_BIG things. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Code Jam" group. To unsubscribe from this
