QUESTION
I am practicing for USACO and I came across the "Censoring" Problem: http://www.usaco.org/index.php?page=viewproblem2&cpid=526
I solved it pretty quickly and though I got it right. However, it turns out that my the server gives me a time error for test cases 7-15 (it works well for the first 6 test cases).
Here is my code.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Mar-14 at 20:29This is fast enough to get accepted. I build the result string one character at a time. Whenever this creates the bad string (at the end of the partial result), I remove it.
QUESTION
I'm getting this runtime error for the 2017 USACO Bronze question 1. I am using python to solve it. Runtime errors are pretty common for me and I really have a hard time fixing them. Can someone help me figure out which part of my code is bad. I am very new to competitive programming (in fact this is the first USACO question I have solved) so please bear with me. Here is the problem http://www.usaco.org/index.php?page=viewproblem2&cpid=759
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-18 at 08:02I waited a few days before posting this, to give you time solving the problem on your own, based on our discussion above. Nevertheless, I think it's worth showing the solution here as an answer to help others who might run into the same problem.
As I've already mentioned in my comments, your code works perfectly! The runtime error given by the USACO server was caused by a simple technical problem: you used input()
to get the input data and print()
to display the result, while the server wants you to read an input file and save an output file instead.
QUESTION
I am currently trying to solve a simple version of checkers with python. Specifically, I am trying to solve the problem "checkers" from USACO 2008 December Bronze contest. (Problem Link)
My idea is to run a recursive dfs function on the location of each of the kings. However, I have encountered some issues with my dfs function. When I run my dfs function multiple times, the function produces different outputs, even with the same parameters. Specifically, it only produces the right outputs in the first time. I don't know what is happening, any help will be appreciated, thank you! (I am using Python 3.7)
Here is my dfs function:

Answered 2021-Jan-30 at 21:17The .copy()
list method will only work on one "layer" of the list. Since grid
is a list of lists, the original will still be changed if you change the copy.
For example, try in the Python console

Hello I am a new to USACO and I found out that it uses File input and output rather than standard input output on CodeForces. I am used to copying and pasting the input into my ide where the output is then shown to me. I use IntelliJ Java.
This is what happens when I run it
How test input and output through files? Any links or comments would be helpful :) Sorry for being a noob.

QUESTION
Okay, so I was doing some practice problems for USACO and noticed that for one of the problems, you needed to add all values of an array up to a certain value. For an example, say that a = [0, 5, 7, 3, 9]. You need to find the value of all the sum of the numbers up to a certain value, but you don't know what the value is( Like the value could be a[2], a[3], a[4] or anything) Also, the array is different every time. How would you find the sum of all values up to a certain place in the array?
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Dec-20 at 18:02you can find the index of the value and the sum the sublist up untill it :
QUESTION
How can I rewrite my function so that when it runs, it changes the variables input as arguments? I have read you have to write global
before each variable name but writing global before a
, b
, c
parameters doesn't work and I can't figure out another way to make it work.

QUESTION
I'm having trouble with Usaco training gate's milking time problem (aka milk2). My code works for the first few problems, but then doesn't work for one of the cases.
The problem is here:http://jeremiahflaga.blogspot.com/2011/09/milking-cows-programming-problem-from.html
The case that doesn't work is: [1, 2] [3, 4] [5, 6] [7, 8] [9, 10] [11, 12] [13, 14] [15, 16] [17, 18] [19, 20] [1, 20]
I think it is because of the last [1, 20], and it makes my code not work as I don't think I'm managing the merging correctly, but I've tried for some time and ended up making the code worse.
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Jun-27 at 14:18Your solution seems wrong.
The main mistake is an assumption you apparently made, that you can find all important correlations between given intervals in a single pass along the table. Alas, the problem formulation makes no guarantee the intervals are given in any specific order. It even specifically mentions there are several 'farmers' milking – so their repective schedules may make a total input unordered when concatenated, even if each schedule is ordered. This is a case in your example data, which contains an ordered run of ten intervals
[1, 2] [3, 4] ... [19, 20]
and then another single-interval run
[1. 20]
which covers the former.
To handle that, I'd recommend sorting the data by a start time of intervals:
[1, 2] [1, 20] [3, 4] ... [19, 20]
Every two intervals with the same start time overlap, and now they sit in a contiguous block of the array, so we can easily find them. Additionally, an i
-th interval overlaps some further k
-th interval (with i
less than k
) if, and only if, the i
-th one ends at the same time or later than the k
-th one starts.
This is how I would merge them:
