on round 3 of dwite (today), all of my team's answers were 0/5 because the compiler said that the output file didnt have enough lines
is it just our coding (we did a simple for loop 1 to 5 and each time at least write something) or is there something wrong with the compiler? |

"we still use vb.net"
i know, we're terrible >.< but we still tried
edit:
nvm it was actually our mistake
after having some time to look over the test results, i found that we tried to do a division by 0 which probably crashed our program... wow this was embarrassing
well hope we do better next time |

It's noramly a good idea to output what ever results you find as soon as you find them so you still get some marks if your program crashs or is killed latter on.
It also maybe a good idea to put in some very simple exception handling such as in this pseudocode:
code: |
for each testcase:
try:
do testcase stuff here
output result + newline
exception:
output newline
end for
