Hello! I think slow languages have unfair disadvantage because of the time limit. At Round 1C, I made a solution for Ant Stack but it was rejected as time limit exceeded. I had time to reimplement it in C++ and it passed. But generally they were doing the same thing. I know it is possible to solve the problems in python,too, because I saw some guy did it, but I think it's much harder, and requires to notice even small optimizations,too, that you don't have to use if you are using c++. I think having different time limit for different languages would be the solution to this. Hackerrank already did this: https://www.hackerrank.com/environment
I think if this doesn't happen, even less people will use the "slow" languages. I certanly will switch back to c++. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Code Jam" group.
