That's some typing ability you've got there. Respect. Don't avoid loops. The overhead of a loop is miniscule; it'll never make a difference in codejam. What's more, your compiler can unroll loops if necessary to optimize the target code. Have a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_un

Any idea when the contest analyses for rounds 1b and 1c will be published? (I'm not complaining about them not being available, since I know that you're all hard working engineers, I was just wondering when I should look for them.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to t

[gcj] Likelihood of more supported languages for 2019

2019-01-31 Thread Rob Lachlan
How likely is it that more languages will be added for this year's competition? I'm most interested in Rust, but I think there are other languages that people are interested in. D, Ocaml, and Scala, for instance have fans and are supported by codeforces among other judges. -- You received

[gcj] Re: cryptopangrams, what is the key for the 10^100 prime numbers?

2019-04-08 Thread Rob Lachlan
Briefly, If you got the visible test, you probably know that all you need is the factors for one of the numbers, and the rest can all be got one by one out from that number. The key to the large numbers is realizing that GCD is much easier to do than factoring in general. So if you have two

[gcj] Could you please examine your Julia environment?

2019-04-29 Thread Rob Lachlan
I think that there is a problem with the Julia environment in codejam right now which didn't exist during the qualification round. I ran into this problem when I got RE during round 1B for the crepe cart problem, but I don't think its simply a case of "it runs on my machine, not in yours." I
