Thanks Pablo for the reply! A small number of points. 1) It's comforting to know you Googlers pre-tested in Python and have solutions that comfortably meet the time limit.
2) I think several of us here are eager either to see one (or more) of said solutions. Hopefully in the near future we will be able to see our fellow competitors submissions on the new platform :). 3) Most of us here realize we're working with a slower language when using python and realize there are times when it will be harder (or sometimes impossible) to make python solutions pass in the time constraints. That said, I personally think the python "tax" got worse in GCJ 2018 in moving to the "server side execution" model. I know the C++ guys lost their boost libraries, but the python guys lost * pypy (and pypy3) * multiprocessing.Pool(processes=8) * numpy and scipy libraries Any future efforts to restore some/all of these losses would help level the performance playing field here and would be greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Code Jam" group.
