CodeSprint


I’ve been working on the Terrain Engine, but I’m back at school now, so I won’t have much time. Moreover, there wasn’t any post this weekend because I was doing CodeSprint, a kind of competition for employers where inverviestreet releases a bunch of problems and you try to do as many as you can over 48 hours. I did… not that well. Although, I suppose I wasn’t planning to - I just made a snap decision to do it, without any preparation. At least I got some problems done.

They had some pretty tough problems on there - mostly because your program not only had to get the right answer out of some testcases, but it had to do it in the allotted amount of time. I was using C++, so my program had only 3 seconds to do any given test case. Anyway, I’m glad I did it, and I did manage to solve one of the problems, so I am barely eligible to apply to companies using CodeSprint. Not sure if it’ll do me any good, with how I did, but we’ll just have to see.
