The Garden of Words - A Proposed New Problem
Back to General discussions forum
It's been too long.
A new problem is in your email inbox, Rodion. The solution of it should not be difficult, but the generation of the puzzle itself gave me a bit of healthy trouble.
Cheers!
Vladimir, thanks! It's never too long or too late :)
It may take some time from me to make sure all three files work right (and it is a bit after midnight so I'm not in my brightest state of mind) - but hopefully soon it will be online!
the generation of the puzzle itself gave me a bit of healthy trouble.
Ho-ho-ho :) yep, while in some cases it may happen that creating generator/checker even doesn't require knowing how to solve the problem - in other cases it sometimes is quite contrary :)
UPD: I found the only amendments needed are for := operator unsupported by outdated python version on the server and
for fetching the file with urlopen. Thing is ready to be tried - I'll revisit it in morning to perhaps improve the punctuation :)
Rodion:
Thank you so much for posting this so quickly! The code changes are correct (I will try to remember CA uses an older Python version).
All the best, and thanks again,
Vladimir
Vladimir,
Thanks for this fun problem. I can imagine that designing the algorithm for creating the gardens is good fun too.
I took a liberty of adding my own solution.
I expect there will be another problem from your truly in a few days (the biggest challenge, as tends to be the case with my problems, was working out the problem generation algorithm).
