Laminator: Wow totally just did shortest mode on a reverse.

Allis: Gotta go fast.

Default avatar.png Crazycw99: Whats up?

Allis: A matter of perspective.

Gorbit99: Allis have you seen that I've found a new and good method of blocking the autocomplete?

Allis: Oh?

Gorbit99: (on chrome that is, working on the ff version)

alanhong: im hacking nasa with html

Allis: Godspeed, alanhong.

Allis: Gorbit99, a userscript that calls into the editor directly?

Zuabros: hey people lats do some clash of code

Gorbit99: almost, it calls into the monaco module

Allis: Published somewhere?

Gorbit99: to be exact, it calls the function monaco.languages.registerCompletionItemProvder without arguments (because js) and that kinda messes with it

Gorbit99: of course, I even made a forum post

Allis: Zuabros, why not try?

Gorbit99: https://www.codingame.com/forum/t/disable-all-of-your-autocomplete-with-this-simple-script/185970/3

Allis: Very nice. Thanks!

Gorbit99: you need tampermonkey for it

Zuabros: @allis got sleepy just to read this.

Gorbit99: the only problem with ff is that greasemonkey has different timings or something

Gorbit99: I need monaco to exist when this gets called for obvious reasons

Gorbit99: also, there are a few other register functions to remove certain other popups

Gorbit99: right now even with this extension, you will get stuff like function signature help

Gorbit99: but of course, if you just add the call to "monaco.languages.registerSignatureHelpProvider()" that will solve itself

Gorbit99: aaaand got it to work with ff too

Gorbit99: time to test it with tampermonkey

eulerscheZahl: happy Caturday

jrke: oh i forgot its caturday

Gorbit99: happy caturday

jrke: happy caturday

jrke: hey gorbit99 how is your samegame going?

Gorbit99: haven't touched it, on vacation

Gorbit99: I'm only online because it's 7 am and I was the one unfortunate soul to wake up early after a night of drinking

Gorbit99: Posted a new script to get rid of the signature help popup too

Gorbit99: now nothing can block your screen as far as I'm aware

jacek: happy Caturday

field3: atari go 9x9 Approved because it is difficult to survive. The trick is to make two eyes to survive.:relaxed:

jacek: atari go has 4 leagues?

jacek: 9x9

field3: Personally, I had the most fun at Codin Game this year If you learn Go, you can enjoy it for the rest of your life.:relieved:

jrke: yeah my first bot programming in which im first

PatrickMcGinnisII: Ummm jrke dots and boxes?

jrke: yeah

PatrickMcGinnisII: umm, u #1

jrke: yeah 1st

PatrickMcGinnisII: though u was talking about go

jrke: oh your submission is also evaluating in wood 2 above boss i think

PatrickMcGinnisII: yes, i should be with the big dogs soon enough

jrke: cause boss is something 20 points you are 23.65

jrke: yeah i know

PatrickMcGinnisII: i won every game or had like 5 draws

jrke: but the thing is i got 37.95 points in wood 1 which is too good for me

jrke: yeah i am seeing your battles patrick

PatrickMcGinnisII: wood1 started

jacek: ahh morning wood?

PatrickMcGinnisII: oooh 7x7 board

jrke: welcome to wood 1 :)

jrke: jacek whats your current algo in D&B minimax?

PatrickMcGinnisII: I setup structure and datablock for minmax, but I only just did greedy move or random box w/o 2 poss. moves...pretty simple

jrke: whats your depth ?

PatrickMcGinnisII: oh its zero at the moment, rofl

jrke: depth 0?

jacek: i just use heuristic

PatrickMcGinnisII: I didn't run the minmax yet, I just allocated all the memory for the tree

jacek: avoid 2 edges squares and play 1 edge squares

PatrickMcGinnisII: structures are in place, but they aren't used yet

jrke: oh

jrke: currently i have few bugs but no idea how to fix them though i tried it but no results :confused:

PatrickMcGinnisII: looks like for 5102 nodes I use 275544 in memory.

eulerscheZahl: yeah, some obvious bugs. like frame 97 https://www.codingame.com/share-replay/483015294

PatrickMcGinnisII: hmm, should be twice that for 5k nodes...i screwed something up

jrke: euler frame 98 or 97 whatever its not bug its a strategy

PatrickMcGinnisII: maybe my strategy needs evolving, tx for replay

eulerscheZahl: oh, you are right. well played even

PatrickMcGinnisII: well I settled in mediocre land in leaderboard as expected

PatrickMcGinnisII: well, thats it. goodnight.

jrke: gn patrick

jrke: its shining sun here :stuck_out_tongue:

jrke: is there any tool by which i can play various matches offline against particular player

dbdr: https://i.snipboard.io/mvqwSu.jpg will I promote? suspense is high...

dbdr: jrke: https://github.com/s-vivien/CGBenchmark

jrke: thanks dbdr

jrke: how to make it run?

dbdr: poor field3 stuck without any matches

dbdr: did you read the documentation? :D

eulerscheZahl: TL;DR :D

dbdr: if not that it's TS;DU

eulerscheZahl: too short, didn't understand?

dbdr: ^ this guy guesses ^

eulerscheZahl: did you just make this up or is it a thing?

dbdr: both

dbdr: it's a thing now

dbdr: hm, if a boss starts very negative, you might loses against it and still promote :D

dbdr: only if there are few matches though

jrke: 9*9 go is here

jrke: i just saw

dbdr: lol: https://www.codingame.com/replay/483020701

field3: ?:thinking:

eulerscheZahl: you got destroyed

dbdr: a bit

dbdr: capture of 80, cannot do better :D

dbdr: prooves 9x9 is very different from 19x19

eulerscheZahl: more difference than for coders of the realm 2p vs 4p?

field3: .Except for Seki, go cannot survive unless it has two complete eyes.

dbdr: isn't the reason for that that you cannot do a 2p or 4p but not 3p game?

eulerscheZahl: no idea, didn't follow the discussion

dbdr: but you know the SDK. I think it has min and maxplayers only, right?

eulerscheZahl: right. with 2 and 4 there is also 3

eulerscheZahl: just saying i don't know the game well enough to judge if there is a 3 player version

jrke: yeah hypersonic,tron battle have 3 players battles

eulerscheZahl: you can't compare those with SDK contributions anyways

dbdr: you could have a 3rd player that never gets a turn, and always finished 2nd :D

eulerscheZahl: e.g. we don't have the possibility to rotate positions in SDK games

eulerscheZahl: or have higher leagues than wood

dbdr: it's possible if CG enables it, I think

eulerscheZahl: yes. but nothing the uploader can do

dbdr: right

dbdr: https://www.codingame.com/multiplayer/bot-programming/atari-go-9x9/leaderboard probably the lowest scores ever

dbdr: nobody above 10.0

eulerscheZahl: especially field is really disappointing

field3: :rage:

eulerscheZahl: :upside_down:

dbdr: :D

Thyl: Hello

eulerscheZahl: good morning

Thyl: Why make a int tab

Thyl: in the int tab 2 in tab

Thyl: in C

Thyl: ???

eulerscheZahl: me no understand

Thyl: ok

Thyl: I start traduct

Thyl: Google traduct :)

Thyl: How to make an array containing 2 integer array in C

eulerscheZahl: int array[2] = {1,2};

dbdr: 2d array I think

Thyl: It's my code

eulerscheZahl: 2D? that's now what I read

eulerscheZahl: your turn dbdr

Thyl: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/d865f87b-3f6d-4e76-ba9f-cd2de1d87691

Thyl: Sorry eulerscheZahl

dbdr: int p[][] is what's called a 2D array

AntiSquid: what is the difference between the 2 games of go ?

dbdr: board size

dbdr: and that I fail miserably at 9x9

AntiSquid: is 9x9 smaller? smaller boards should be easier for bots :p

dbdr: it's also easier for you opponent, so not really easier

dbdr: and 9x9 fills up while 19x19 does not, so endgame is different

field3: I was also programming and thought it was different, so I approved it.

jrke: i m scared by wood 3 boss just by looking dbdr battles history

dbdr: jrke, don't worry, it's not the boss that's good, it's my bot who is stupid

dbdr: I suspect it's just that it does not know that it is allowed to pass

jrke: i am lucky cause currently im learning minimax and various new bot programming are there in which minimax can be used

jacek: hmm https://cdn.videocardz.com/1/2020/08/NVIDIA-GeForce-RTX-3090-1-1.jpg

jacek: simple minimax? or also alpha-beta and/or iterative deepening

Default avatar.png noob-boi: hey is anyone on

Default avatar.png noob-boi: i need some help

jrke: whats the help?

Default avatar.png shawn_the_goat: help with what>

Default avatar.png shawn_the_goat: ?*

dbdr: my bot learned to pass: https://www.codingame.com/replay/483031675

thinking:

itzblinkzy: tech.anand can you share your code please?

jrke: dbdr your bot learned passing but forgot everything else

dbdr: yes, one cannot have everything

jrke: train your bot :all_the_best:

dbdr: if ?? { use_pass_bot() } else { use_nonpass_bot() }

dbdr: just need to figure out the ??

jrke: hmm nice

Default avatar.png mingmangmong: hi

Thyl: morning

DomiKo: hello

jacek: happy Caturday

aCat: happy :joy_cat:

DomiKo: :smile_cat:

jacek: i cant test against dbd r in bt ;(

Default avatar.png AliZainAldeen: hello , is there any way to change the default c++ template that comes with the code ?

jacek: no. the stub is generated per puzzle and is mostly the same except for input and output

Default avatar.png AliZainAldeen: thanks man .

Default avatar.png Arrogant: :punch:

jacek: :raised_hand:

jacek: paper beats rock, i win

Default avatar.png Arrogant: :grinning:yep

Default avatar.png HassanDurjoy: :v_tone2:

Default avatar.png Ged223: hey

Flaf: Hi all!

Default avatar.png Will_D: hey everyone!

Default avatar.png KyraTheDork: 👋

Default avatar.png kresmachine: tst

Default avatar.png Monsieur_Pook: interface is very cluttered

jacek: huh

Zuabros: hello

Zuabros: lets have some clash

AntiSquid: where this peopla coming from?

AntiSquid: these people *

jacek: from... Internet

eulerscheZahl: from a parallel universe where clashing is popular

AntiSquid: i think you were raised on the internet jacek

Default avatar.png squeals: :metal:

AntiSquid: hey euler codejam starts in 6 days, are you participating?

eulerscheZahl: huh?

AntiSquid: https://itch.io/jam/olc-codejam-2020

eulerscheZahl: that's not what i expected when you wrote "codejam"

AntiSquid: i know

eulerscheZahl: doesn't look interesting at all to me

AntiSquid: was a joke

eulerscheZahl: open topic, do what you want and we'll judge it fine, but without me

AntiSquid: i am subscribed to the guy's youtube channel, he has some interesting videos about c++ stuff, but he announced that, name seemed familiar so found out it's not what it seems, so best solution was to post it here and try to get someone excited for no reason

eulerscheZahl: you were close but i know the usual schedule

eulerscheZahl: and the winner

eulerscheZahl: tourist, 7x in a row

AntiSquid: always same winner?

AntiSquid: how can he code with all the noise outside? (belarus had riots recently)

eulerscheZahl: i'm not even sure where he lives currently. competes for a Russian university at ICPC

dbdr: it's not like any protest noise covers any large % of a country

dbdr: actually I heard IT was a growing sector in Minsk

jacek: was?

dbdr: we would need a native speaker, but I think that's how you would normally say it. I heard in the past, so it was is also in the past

dbdr: I'm not implying it's not anymore

dbdr: of course internet cuts don't help, but hopefully that won't last

eulerscheZahl: but not a native speaker like Zeno. He gets easily confused when it comes to grammar :D

dbdr: :D

Mykes: pepega clap

dbdr: it used to be growing. it still is, but it used to, too

jrke: where is astrobytes from last few days?

eulerscheZahl: got replaced by an updated version today. astro from last days is gone

dbdr: https://www.cgpgrey.com/blog/i-have-died-many-times

Default avatar.png Monsieur_Pook: why is the interface so cluttered?

Default avatar.png JBM: because the devs made it so

Default avatar.png Monsieur_Pook: bad decision

Default avatar.png JBM: you tell them

dbdr: feel free to do better

eulerscheZahl: make your own CG website. with hookers and black jack

dbdr: haven't you already done that eulerscheZahl?

dbdr: waiting for the release...

dbdr: also, that sounds cluttered

eulerscheZahl: nah, way over my level. but i'm good at making ugly UIs

TheSpiffiest: What are the commands for the editor? Somehow I changed all my text in the web IDE panel to super tiny, but the rest of the page is OK

dbdr: Ctrl + mousewheel to change font size

TheSpiffiest: Thank you! I must have done it by accident and I couldn't figure a keyboard combo

Default avatar.png Ak47aman: Hello

Default avatar.png EehabSaadat: Hello

hachbani: Hello everybody, Is this formulation correct ?


hachbani: vector<string> names3;

   for (auto &s:names1) {names3.push_back(s);}


hachbani: (C++)

hachbani: Thanks in advance

AntiSquid: Monsieur_Pook what part of the interface is cluttered?

AntiSquid: hachbani test it ?!

hachbani: thanks for the help, didn't occur to me..

jrke: nice lead in atari go wood 3 trictrac

Default avatar.png MrHowitzer: ooh! hello all. literally just got access to the chat.

Default avatar.png Memo12334: jrke ya rlly 13 yrs old

jrke: yes

Default avatar.png Memo12334: wow

Default avatar.png Memo12334: people rank up by doing clash of code or?

Default avatar.png Memo12334: I mean like ascending in ranks

jrke: just clashing can give you max 5000-10000 rank if you are good in clashing

jrke: bot programming is important for rank

WaRiOrOfCoDe: What are this certifications on home page for?

Default avatar.png JBM: bragging rights

Default avatar.png Memo12334: JBM

Default avatar.png Memo12334: can I ask u something if u don't mind

Default avatar.png JBM: i don't know

Default avatar.png JBM: hard to tell without seeing the quesation

Default avatar.png Memo12334: I want to begin bot programming and there are so many choices. Idk which to choose

Default avatar.png JBM: yeah

Default avatar.png JBM: neither do i

Default avatar.png Memo12334: ok ty

Default avatar.png JBM: np

Default avatar.png Ak47aman: Hello Friends

jacek: start with trolls and castles

Default avatar.png JBM: oh, right

Default avatar.png JBM: that's actually a better suggestion than csb

Default avatar.png JBM: i should think of it more spontaneously

Default avatar.png JBM: jacek++

inoryy: what is this heresy in my church of csb

Default avatar.png Memo12334: aaay jacek I appreciate

Default avatar.png Memo12334: uh I can't find it

jacek: there is another awesome game. it has :soccer: in it

jacek: trolls isnt approved yet

Default avatar.png Memo12334: bruh

dbdr: TVC is about one week away from being validated and always will be

Default avatar.png Memo12334: is a masters in maths or CS needed

eulerscheZahl: no, smits proved that a PhD in physics is fine too

Default avatar.png Memo12334: nvm found it , coders stirke back is the one everyone should begin with if it's the first time

inoryy: good choice

Default avatar.png JBM: here's TVC for those who can't find the link: https://www.codingame.com/demo/84238477bff184d6523d9b7b6a0dd0790496d8

jacek: you need phd in physics for csb

eulerscheZahl: agade has one too

Default avatar.png Memo12334: maybe to get #1

Default avatar.png JBM: just to understand the collision model

Default avatar.png JBM: the rest is ezpz

Default avatar.png JBM: or so i've heard

Default avatar.png JBM: (from the best)

eulerscheZahl: MK is still alive, even if not active on CG

Default avatar.png JBM: good news

eulerscheZahl: Gorbit99: I blcoked madknight on discord yesterday :(

Gorbit99: he messaged me 3 times a day if i tried the algo he outlined the other day, and yesterday when I told him that I had other plans, he said to just not do that and do the algo instead, as what I wanted sucked anyways

eulerscheZahl: chat from last saturday

Default avatar.png JBM: oh tht's old news

Default avatar.png JBM: already read it

eulerscheZahl: oh, ok

inoryy: lol I didnt, thanks

jacek: old news? so olds?

Default avatar.png hero_comes: hello everyone

Default avatar.png BlueCat: Hi there

DemonShadow90: Hello Guys

Schwase: hello

Schwase: this is YOUR daily dose of internet

Schwase: @JBM i won a fruit counting clash yesterday. I dedicate my win to you my friend

Goldian: hellow my frineds

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: hi just asking it is a bit hard for my to get the code without looking at the algorithm this is my third code is that normal? and how can i improve my skills thanks y'all.

Schwase: gg katz

Schwase: i dont understand your question?

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: is it normal not to know how to solve the problem

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: i have to look at the algorithm or may be the code itself

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: to understand what i have to do

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: and how can i improve my problem solving skills

Schwase: yes it is normal

Schwase: how to improve: do more puzzles and clashes

Schwase: also learn more code approaches

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: okay thank u

Schwase: what language do you use to code?

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: c++

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: i am learning c++ at university and trying to learn js alone

jacek: js is popular for clash

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: anyone learning c++

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: ?

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: or js?

itzblinkzy: js

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: self learning or what?

itzblinkzy: yep

itzblinkzy: tutorials on yt

itzblinkzy: and stuff like that

AntiSquid: lol the madao arguments :D

itzblinkzy: after im decent with js ill move over to c++

AntiSquid: Automaton2000 do you miss MadKnight ?

Automaton2000: so it was the other way around

AntiSquid: i see

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: what should i do after learning the syntax of programming language

AntiSquid: make use of it

Default avatar.png healy: Build stuff, basically

Default avatar.png healy: As simple as that sounds, remember that programming languages are *languages*; you won't get better until you start speaking (using) them.

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: does problem solving count ?

AntiSquid: no

AntiSquid: build a 3D cube or do CSB

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: using c++?

AntiSquid: yes

Default avatar.png healy: It... does and it doesn't. Solving problems can help you write cleaner code, but sites like, for example Leetcode don't always directly translate to "good" real-world code

AntiSquid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xW8skO7MFYw then https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEb2akswCcw

AntiSquid: aammeerraak ?

Default avatar.png healy: It depends also obviously on exactly what we mean by "problems". If the problem is "I wanna build a game involving XYZ", then yes, that is a problem that will count. If it's just your boring old "Write a function to determine if N is prime in O(√N) time", then...

Default avatar.png healy: I guess my point is just try to do both :)

Default avatar.png theBatman: aammmeerraak u should try coding on sites like coding game hackerrank once u learn hoew to implement ur code to solve a problem u can try making some projects. Hope it Helps!

AntiSquid: you don't really need coding to create games, see unity and other engines that do the work for you

AntiSquid: and avoid hackerrank

AntiSquid: and avoid recruitment agents that contact you on hackerrank too

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: @AntiSquid thanks

jacek: avoid csv *.*

jacek: csb

Default avatar.png morcod: @AntiSquid why

Default avatar.png morcod: ??

AntiSquid: ya good question? why avoid csv? it's file format that datasets usually come in

Default avatar.png healy: Well, I don't explicitly mean games; in fact, I'd say that's a bit of a stretch goal if you're a beginner (tho i dunno; I'm not a C++ person!). Just that you shouldn't necessarily stick yourself in the "I must only solve Hackerrank style problems until I'm blue in the face", or worse that you should *force* yourself to program (rather than finding a project you enjoy and working on that)

Default avatar.png morcod: @Antisquid hmm,no why avoid hackerrank and agencies ,because im interested by getting a job in programing

AntiSquid: c++ projects btw with tutorials healy aammeerraak https://github.com/tuvtran/project-based-learning

Default avatar.png healy: Why are we avoiding the Chemical Safety Board? What have we been doing in here? :fearful:

Default avatar.png healy: @AntiSquid nice, yeh, that's sorta what I mean. Projects, not just algorithms. Thx

AntiSquid: ah imo they suck and because i can avoid them morcod, do as you wish, was just advice, just submit a CV to a company you like or call them and see what they are looking for, often it's good practice to make sure you tell them you're not a recruitment agent btw, they do get pestered with calls

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: can i use that as a beginner

AntiSquid: yes

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: i know the syntax of c++

Default avatar.png morcod: Thank you for advice :)

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: and i did study the opp

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: oop **

AntiSquid: you can use anything as a beginner . if a step isn't clear you pause and google for a tutorial or something to explain you that step aammeerraak

Default avatar.png morcod: i think a portfolio is mandatory !!

Default avatar.png aammeerraak: thank u @AntiSquid

AntiSquid: no problem you welcome

Default avatar.png AliZainAldeen: any tips to have self confidence in cp ? like i can solve alot of hard problems but not when i am asked to do it

Default avatar.png JBM: Schwase: thanks :D

Default avatar.png Zebula: Seems like this website is geared more towards individuals who are already developers. Someone who is new and doesn't understand syntax, if a language is case sensitive etc wouldn't be well suited to use this site. Is that a fair statement?

Default avatar.png kschang77: This site is for people who want to learn to solve problems programmatically.

Default avatar.png Zebula: Right, but if they don't understand the fundamentals, they won't be able to solve them. Not knowing what an "if" statement is, loops etc

Default avatar.png kschang77: It'd be like trying to run before one can walk, yes.

Zm4j: https://cses.fi/book/book.pdf

Zm4j: maybe this can help you start

Default avatar.png Jamesythelegend: Yeah but realistically you only need a day or so to learn the basics of a language before you can start working on solutions on this website

Default avatar.png Zebula: Gotcha. Was looking for a site to teach me languages like C# or C++ beforehand to get a leg up before college courses. Guess I'll check elsewhere

Zm4j: you can try this link i sent here, see if you can understand, it is good for start

Default avatar.png Zebula: I'll check it out. Thank you

Default avatar.png Memo12334: uhm anyone online

Schwase: no

Gorbit99: nah, noone

Default avatar.png Memo12334: the bot progrmming thing , im doing submit it battles and then nothing

Schwase: which one

Gorbit99: check the "last battles" thingy

Gorbit99: it might just be going on

Default avatar.png Memo12334: uhm it takes rlly long then

Default avatar.png Memo12334: is that normal

Schwase: i can answer questions about java, classic puzzles, and the contribution page

Gorbit99: yes

Schwase: not much else

Gorbit99: it does take long

Default avatar.png Memo12334: ok because it was 100% and then I clicked somewhere else and then submit again and its doing it all over again right

Default avatar.png Memo12334: wait, where do I have to look. Battles in progress?

EcksDee: thats the way it works Memo12334, resubmitting is "starting over" in your current league

Gorbit99: wiat it out

Gorbit99: wait*

Default avatar.png Memo12334: noooooo Iwas in top 50

EcksDee: what multi, and what league?

Default avatar.png Memo12334: coders strike back bronz V

EcksDee: usually about the 10 first matches decides where about you should be ranked, then the rest will boost/drop your score/rank

EcksDee: oh nice work, you just started it a few days ago right?

Default avatar.png Memo12334: I started bot programming today, some hours ago

Default avatar.png Memo12334: I did ~20 easy challenges and 3 medium and now trying to be an AI dev

EcksDee: damn, well done :)

Default avatar.png Memo12334: ty but ye not rlly. I had a hard time

Default avatar.png Memo12334: so it got to 100% and after it's fighting again and will it ever stop or do I have to improve my code

EcksDee: you will get more matches when others submit in your league and fight your bot. otherwise no not untill you submit again

Default avatar.png Memo12334: ok im lost, I beat this boss 3 and submitted , waited till 100% and nothing

EcksDee: what rank if you press leaderboard?

TheSpiffiest: are there any hints on "code of the rings" optimization? I'm making things smaller, but wondering if there's some algorithm I should read up on for this type of thing

TheSpiffiest: I have 100%, but not sure where to begin making it smaller

EcksDee: you have beat both the other players below boss and boss itself while submitting is going. and to fight the boss your bot first have to be at the top

Default avatar.png Memo12334: I found my self at 423 :S , I tell with shame

EcksDee: doing golf TheSpiffiest?

TheSpiffiest: Sort of, but for the movements, not the code

EcksDee: then you have to improve it before fighting the boss doing a submit ;)

TheSpiffiest: lots of code the optimizes minimal moves

TheSpiffiest: EcksDee https://www.codingame.com/ide/puzzle/code-of-the-rings

EcksDee: have you checked the external resources links for the puzzle?

EcksDee: Finite State MachineDecision treeFormal grammarBrainf**k

EcksDee: https://www.codingame.com/multiplayer/optimization/code-of-the-rings

EcksDee: on this page

TheSpiffiest: Oh - nope. I'll check those out

TheSpiffiest: I jumped there from the quest map and jumped straight to solve it. Forgot to go back to start after

EcksDee: there are always (i think) links for algorithms or approaches that the puzzle is aiming for to be used, good idea to check them out :)

TheSpiffiest: Sweet... I've got google interviews and I haven't done this stuff for 20 years. I used to crank this stuff out in my sleep, but to be honest I haven't used it for at least 12 years.

Default avatar.png Memo12334: but ya want to work at NASA

TheSpiffiest: That's my original plan, to put robots on the moon. But then the google job starts at $300k so...

TheSpiffiest: It can wait a while

Default avatar.png Memo12334: ok that's rlly a lot ;p
