[Task299] Tree Visualization - Probable glitch in the checker
Back to General discussions forum
Like the title says, I get a "wrong answer" response from the checker with the message
"Line #10 should be | | |"
Line #10 should definitely not have a gap of three spaces between "|" characters according to the problem description, so it's obviously wrong. In fact Line #10 is "| | | |". I got the same response for two successive input data, so I'm reporting this for a check. My code is there for Rodion to see, and I can also paste both input data sets, if necessary. Oh, and good morning everyone!
Hi,
I took the first input example from your code and run it. Line #10 should be as the error message suggests. Here are the first 10 lines of output:
01 root
02 |
03 +-3qwj7i
04 | |
05 | +-5q4m7a
06 | | |
07 | | +-42hqdn
08 | | |
09 | | \-74gvlj
10 | | |
Turns out I hadn't properly "figured out remaining details of the format" (as per the problem statement) and made a fool of myself in the process. Somehow seeing your excerpt above made it click. I choose to blame the simplistic example given in the problem that didn't give that detail away :) .
By the way, while I don't usually check out other's solutions I couldn't but be surprised by the brevity of the solution, both from you and zelevin. Remarkable.
So, thanks! Another one down...
