I’ve found a bug. I’ve written the dynamic algorithm in C++ (I use Codecombat to learn Python), and then it returned good return. But, the lasers remain(why?)
Hmm, C++ is not supported in codecombat, I don’t get why you’re attempting to use it? Or is it something else?
But I tested if the python algorihtm is bad by writting the ggod one in c++ (level is subarray retreat, I tested if the gems I selected are the best combination) Do you want some screenshots?
Well, C++ isn’t a programming language that you can use in codecombat. There’s currently Python, JavaScript, and Cofeescript(Experimental). So you should use one of the 3 because C++ can’t be used in codecombat.
I use python but I have a c++ compiler so I wanted to test if my code is wrong (I got the gem values and tested if my python code works good)
# Find the subarray of gems with the best summary value.
# This function solves the problem in linear time.
def dynamicMaxSum (gems):
cycles = 0
maxStartIndex = 0
maxEndIndex = 0
maxEndHere = gems[0].value
currentStartIndex = 0
maxBest = 0
for i in range(len(gems)):
cycles += 1
maxEndHere += gems[i].value
if maxEndHere < 0:
maxEndHere = 0
currentStartIndex = i + 1
if maxEndHere > maxBest:
maxStartIndex = currentStartIndex
maxEndIndex = i
maxBest = maxEndHere
hero.say("I's taken " + cycles + " cycles.")
return [maxStartIndex, maxEndIndex]
# This function solves the problem in quadratic time.
def naiveMaxSum(gems):
cycles = 0
maxStartIndex = 0
maxEndIndex = 0
maxBest = 0
for i in range(len(gems)):
sum = 0
for j in range(i, len(gems)):
cycles += 1
if cycles > 104:
hero.say("I fed up of calculations.")
return [i, j]
sum += gems[j].value
if sum > maxBest:
maxStartIndex = i
maxEndIndex = j
maxBest = sum
hero.say("I's taken " + cycles + " cycles.")
return [maxStartIndex, maxEndIndex]
# Don't worry "findItems" sort out gems by X coordinate.
items = hero.findItems()
# Δ: Maybe we should change this function?
#edges = naiveMaxSum(items)
edges = dynamicMaxSum(items)
x1 = edges[0] * 4 + 4
x2 = edges[1] * 4 + 4
# Collect gems from x1 to x2 and escape:
hero.moveXY(x1, 40)
hero.moveXY(x2, 40)
hero.moveXY(40,64)
This is my code
Did you change any of the the Dynamic code?
Lol
It didn’t work yesterday and now… it is success
Anyway that must be a strange bug
you know with pender you can just walk through
I mean it’s better if you do it the normal way.
also with ritic. Thats to only way to get 1 in the leaderboards
Note that, doing the level as it tell you to is always better than doing something else and solving it.
