actually, I just read the rules of DWITE, they released new rules regarding submission and stuff like that. 

I think now you have to attach source codes instead of exe programs and you are only allowed to send in two solutions, like the ARML relay questions.

that kind of hinders the l33t haxx0rn3ss of teh programz0r.

will sentjens has agreed to let me put some of my problems on dwite starting  november so be prepared to get pwned!!  j/k (just the part about being pwned -- the problems are not tooo difficult, it should be easily accessible to high students - esp massey student  8) , and you might see 2 or 3 problems from me on november though, thats the truth)

CCH = IN the DWITE 

Good luck to those in it

Just like last year , here is how the contest goes , the winnig team will split the bits depending on how many are on hte compsci board

so if CCH won , Shorthair & Sport would split , 500 bits.

Bits go at my discresion , if hte user is inactive on the board then let me know and you can have all hte bits


1st = 500 bits
2nd = 250 bits
3rd = 125 bits

Later Days , 

Beat you all friday :D  :D  :D

seriously though, you will not be needing any "advanced" algorithms to solve my problems.  in fact, as mr. sentjens adviced, the problems should be in a way thats accessible to grade 11 students.  which means it usually wont have anything that you havent seen in your classes in grade 11 (but including recursion in case thats not taught in grade 11).

man that contest was so damn easy. too bad we had problems with submitting... i finished all problems in about 40 minutes but my teacher had gone off somewhere and we couldnt submit the solutions untill an hour and a half into the contest... then we submitted all the problems at once (thats why the scores are similar) but for some reason they werent accepting solutions for 2 and 4.. i dunno, we emailed the guy and he said he couldnt open the files or something. meh if those 2 were accepted we could have had a score of around 625 putting us in second and if we were able to submit them at the time we had finished them we would have probably finished in fourth...

here are the solutions for my 2 and 4.... they worked on the computer i was using and passed all test that i threw at it so im sure it would have passed if it we didnt have those problems:

P2:

var file : int
var out : int

var input : string
var output : string
open : file, "DATA2", get
open : out, "OUT2", put

loop
    exit when eof (file)
    get : file, input
    var hours : int := strint (input (1 .. 2))
    var minutes : int := strint (input (4 .. 5))
    var half : char
    var HH: string
    var MM: string
    
    if (hours > 12) then
        hours := hours - 12
        half := "P"
    elsif (hours = 12) then
        half := "P"
    else
        half := "A"
    end if
    
    if (minutes
