How are the problems ordered?
The problems are ordered from easiest to hardest, but some may be easier for you than for others. Thus, we recommend taking a look at all the problems!
How do I submit a problem? What languages do you support?
To submit a problem, you must submit the source code for your solution in the appropriate language and to the appropriate problem. We support C++, Java, Python, and PyPy.
What do the verdicts mean?
After submitting a problem, a series of verdicts can occur:
AC – this stands for accepted, and means your solution passes all test cases!
WA – this stands for wrong answer, and means your solution gives a wrong answer for a certain test case.
RTE – this stands for runtime error, and means your code failed in the runtime for various reasons including too much memory, accessing an element that is out of bounds, etc.
CE – this stands for compile error, and means your code failed to compile
