Re: [gcj] Previous contests
I don't agree with the don't practice either, as you stated there's no need to try __any__ of the previous contests, and it sounds just bs to me. Not all the coding challenges have the same data-oriented approach as GCJ, and by practicing the previous challenges you'll be able to measure how hard it gets and how can you get in shape for whatever comes next. No one is trying to foresee what are the next questions, but the previous would give you an idea of the GCJ trends. Dijkstra once said that: Programming is one of the most difficult branches of applied mathematics; the poorer mathematicians had better remain pure mathematicians And as far as I know, if you're not a born genius, the more you practice and learn from your mistakes, the better you get.

Re: [gcj] Previous contests
No. You can write a program as if you were going to do the input through keyboard, and then set the input file as the standard input. The following works on linux and windows: int main(void){ int c; cin c; cout (c+1) endl; } The program above uses cin, which is the stream reader for the standard input (usually the keyboard). If instead of doing the input using the keyboard you want to use a number written on file input.txt, you can just do: app.exe input.txt The cout object will output the results to the standard output (usually your screen), but you can also throw it into a file. For example: app.exe input.txt output.txt In the case above, the output of your program app.exe for the input in input.txt will be written into the file output.txt. Here I used C++, but that works with most programming languages.
