This folder contains the files used in the Programming Contest at MacHack XIII, as well as all of the solutions submitted.
To try your hand at the contest, read the rules in the !Rules file first.
You now have four hours.
Read the problem descriptions in the !Problems file. Write your solution using the code skeletons and project files in the Problems Folder.
The solutions submitted are in the Solutions Submitted folder. Additional test data used to evaluate the solutions submitted are contained in the Secret Test Data folder.
The evaluation code depends on a folder hierarchy that looks like this:
Problems Folder
Problem nn
...
Test Code Folder <-- must be named this
Problem 01 Test Code <-- must be named this
Problem 02 Test Code <-- must be named this
...
Shared Test Code <-- must be named this
Test Data Folder <-- must be named this
Problem 01 Test Data <-- must be named this
Problem 01 Test Data <-- must be named this
...
Secret Folder <-- must be named this
Problem 02
Problem 03
Problem 06
Problem 08
To test against the "secret" test data, replace the contents of the Test Data Folder with the contents of the Secret Test Data folder.
Contest bugs:
Text Processing, result should be "slew" instead of "slow"
Text Processing, docs say the insert string should be "replace",
but test data may have it in search instead.
Interpreter, one fo the files has a space instead of a tab
Enjoy!
