the blanks are supposed to be there, so u have to tweak your program so that it works.

And yes, all the test files there are the official.

hmm.... So do i get zero if i didn't account for the blanks? There is no mention of blanks in the problem.

[A.J]

if you are asking if any of the answers to the test files are 0's, its a no.

Post your code and I'll help u out.
But before u do that, make sure u DID take the spaces into account (include it in your code)

sry if I am not making any sense to u (I seem to have that effect on people )

FindingPi was asking if he gets 0/75 because he didn't handle the additional blank lines. Consequently, none of the test files work.

[A.J]

Oh, in that case FindingPi, dont worry !
I didn't deal with the blanks and I got #4!
So relax, u probably did well!

[Sane]

Does anyone know when we should be expecting the competition results? The end of march right? But I don't see anything on cemc.uwaterloo.ca/ccc/ yet.

[A.J]

the list of who mad stage 2 will mostly come out by April 2nd

[Sane]

Okay. Thanks.

[Sane]

Still waiting on the results!

[Sane]

Yes! The results are a day late, but they're in.

Good game. Who else from compsci's in?

[zylum]

Wow a 66 to get to stage 2.. I haven't checked but isn't that the highest cutoff ever? Usually its in the 50s no?

[Sane]

Yeah. Troy says on the second page that this is definitely a higher average than normal. I also read in an e-mail that he had a difficult time picking the top 20. You will notice about 24 people were invited this year which is also unusual.

[McKenzie]

Sane, I expected to see you on the invite list for stage 2, what happened?

[sven87]

but he IS on there

[A.J]

Sane is Aaron Voelkor..if I'm not wrong
