Google Code Jam 2020

These are my messy solutions for Google Code Jam 2020 in Python 3. May only update after each round so no cheating :)

In each folder, the following files can be present:

• Vanilla files from the problem:
  • problem.md: A Markdown-version of the problem
  • sample.in: Sample input directly from problem.md (Only in non-interactive problems)
  • interactive_runner.py: Interactive runner offered by Code Jam. See explanation on Code Jam FAQ. (Only in interactive problems)
  • testing_tool.py: Testing tool offered by an interactive problem. (Only in interactive problems)
• My files (Uploaded after round ends):
  • analysis.md: My analysis for the problem
  • solution-P|F|U[+].py: My best attempt with results marked in the name. E.g., the solution passed 1st but failed 2nd test set and did not have 3rd set checked would be named solution-PFU.py
  • Other files, if present, will be explained in analysis.md

I usually do not read official analyses because I want to figure them out by myself. Therefore, it may take me weeks, months, even years to solve one problem.

Why Python 3

It's good enough; it runs fast enough; I'm lazy; it has much handled for me.
