heaven7: After 3 days of baging head to the wall with binary search I figured out that my program receives wrong instructions in Shadows of the King Episode 1. Anybody else had similar experiance?
Husoski: take taco
antiwonto: [auto] Husoski has taken 2 :taco:s off the floor and now has 9. There are 0 left
Husoski: heaven7 Did you mean "Shadows of the Knight"?
Nik05: Shadow of the King is an easy puzzle, no binary search
Nik05: Oh wait, it is
Nik05: heaven7 it works for me
Husoski: @heaven7: I just tested my Python solution (straightforward 2D binary search) and it still passes all test cases.
Nik05: Did the same in C#
Husoski: Funny how math works in any language, huh?
Nik05: Oh right, all languages work with stdin/out, so tests are probably all the same. That is different on that other website, where tests are written in a language's test framework
Husoski: I meant the kind of math that says repeated integer division by 2 must reach 1 when the starting number is greater than 1.
heaven7: I'm using Rust, and targeting the test 6 (UP/DOWN). Since I can enable debug, I know where is the "bomb". Now, my algorithm works properly if I implement the logic of going up/down. But when I switch to instructions from the game, at one point, game gives wrong instructions.
heaven7: Check this debug output: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/c377d7a3-6db1-4863-b84b-de42051a691d
heaven7: Maybe I should switch to Python as well. Could it be an issue with instructions provided to the Rust in the background?
jacek: should work the same for all langs
Nik05: Husoski well yes :P
heaven7: that's the idea... :D
heaven7: Let' me try to implement the solution in Python (for example).
heaven7: Will let you know how it goes... :D
Nik05: Are you sure your rust implementation is correct? ;)
Husoski: heaven7 What's your strategy with "UR" and "DL" inputs?
heaven7: I can post it... It's very simple...
Husoski: ...etc.
Husoski: I was going to change my logic and try to duplicate it.
Husoski: There's no rule that says a puzzle can't have a corner-case error...
heaven7: Ok... here goes the unfinished code (ugly), but should give you idea...
heaven7: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/670b4e08-43aa-40ad-9931-5c88eac18ce0
heaven7: I'm targeting the test 4, as lef-right instructions work well....
Nik05: Uh
Nik05: Those bottom two if blocks are kind of empty...
heaven7: They are... I'm targeting the test 4.
Nik05: Oh 4 is 1D
heaven7: I made initially the version that should be working with all instructions (directions), but then the "batman" went bizarre... :D I taught it's the algorithm issue, and went back to the drawing board.
heaven7: This is really a basic problem, that's why I'm so confused.
heaven7: But will try this in python...
Nik05: Well yes, you are missing stuff
jacek: if it doesnt, try space maze
Husoski: Your left/right code is empty, so I don't know how you say you're getting a wrong direction.
heaven7: Try to run test 4 with that code.
Nik05: heaven7 try running cargo check/clippy and it will show you all unused variables...
heaven7: With python version, I'm getting the same issue. Must be a 'problem with the user'.
Nik05: It is indeed
Husoski: It looks to me as if you're doing things in the wrong order.
heaven7: Python code is simpler...
heaven7: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/a0b6f249-9000-4017-9097-cd65b394cdb3
Husoski: The response you get tells you where the bomb is relative to your current location, so you update your high/low boundaries based on that. The midpoint is only for your next guess.
heaven7: This is the 'numeric' simulation...
heaven7: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/456b754e-a7c6-4425-9946-f03ceeb6203a
Husoski: heaven7 read the above. the x_mid and y_mid values should not be involved in the high/low calculation at all, Only the current position and direction input matter.
Nik05: Calculate your midpoint with your new bounds
Husoski: And then do what Nik05 said. Use the new high/low to make a guess.
bortol: Finally got legend in UTTT with java, uh, was harder than expected
heaven7: Will try... Thank you All!
Husoski: yw
Husoski: ...or should that be "np" this century?
Husoski: :)
Nik05: what is "yw"?
Uljahn: u'r welcome
Westicles: yahweh
Nik05: Husoski in my language they now also using "no problem" or the directly translated version...
jacek: UTTT legend in java? impossibru!
Husoski: Nik05 Nederlands huh? You're from the birthplace of Python!
Nik05: yes
Husoski: cool, very cool
Nerchio: bortol good job it's not easy in java ^^
heaven7: Just to report - once I start tracking the coordinate instead of the "mid" value - all is working! :D Such'a trivial problem... Thank you all again!
jacek: :tada:

derjack: w00t my UTTT bot is in legend :/
Nerchio: eulerscheZahl where is your hammer
derjack: struct predicted my 2ms would be enough for legend, but apparently my 1ms is enough
eulerscheZahl: i gave it away after different opinions on platform evolution
eulerscheZahl: but glad to see bot contests back
Uljahn: btw can't you flag posts?
Nik05: heaven7 are you doing episode 2?
eulerscheZahl: oh right, that would work. giving you that red message circle on the forum page
eulerscheZahl: now it looks like someone else has flagged it already
bortol: derjack, I put us 2 in legend when spamming my submissions :D
derjack: :tada:

ycsvenom: is Tychkorg really a bot?
antiwonto: [auto] Hey ycsvenom, here is a :taco: for loggin in today while it is quiet. You now have 12 tacos
ycsvenom: is there really bots at this bots?
ycsvenom: website*
Wontonimo: yes
ycsvenom: how do they choose there answers?
ycsvenom: i know they check on what people code but what if all people did good in a CoC then this bot wont be defeted

NJX: could someone help me, I'm creating a game but I'm having problems with the code, someone available to exchange an idea?
antiwonto: [auto] Hey NJX, here is a :taco: for loggin in today while it is quiet. You now have 1 tacos
Wontonimo: NJX make it faster, unless it is too fast in which case make it slower.
burnpanck: Not sure if that is good advice. Why not make it a bit harder? Unless it is too hard, then make it easier.
Wontonimo: oh, that's a good one burnpanck !
Wontonimo: but seriously, paste ideas you want actual feedback on here and people will give a a good response NJX
Wontonimo: remember, this chat is mostly for codingame related stuff, so if you can relate it back to a multi here, or game AI, then you'll get support / encouragement

Maximus05: array lists or arrays
AdemDj12: 1-loop through the array
1-2- count how many ones
