Sealeopard Sealeopard KiX Master Registered: 2001-04-25 Posts: 11164 Loc: Boston, MA, USA	KiXgolf Tournament 2008 On the first hole of KiXmas my true love gave to me: Easier Done Than Said On the second hole of KiXmas my true love gave to me: A Well-Formatted Problem On the third hole of KiXmas my true love gave to me: Instruens Fabulam On the fourth hole of KiXmas my true love gave to me: Latin Squares The following are the tentative dates for the KiXgolf Tournament 2008. As it's late in the year and the holidays are upon us we will play with overlapping rounds, thus once the public round for the first hole starts we'll also play the private round for the second hole and we then continue adding private/public rounds. And to give everyone a chance to participate we'll keep the public rounds open until the beginning of the new year. The tournament titles are just a high-level description of the actual round and the dates reflect the private rounds Code: Easier Done Than Said : 2008-12-07 to 2008-12-12 A Well-Formatted Problem : 2008-12-13 to 2008-12-19 Instruens Fabulam : 2008-12-20 to 2008-12-26 Latin Squares : 2008-12-27 to 2009-01-02 End of public rounds : 2008-01-09 Scoring for the KiXgolf Tournament is as follows: 1 Point for each participant that posts a KiXgolf script during the public coding round (must be either a new solution or an improvement to an existing solution) x Points for 1st to 5th place in either the private or public round in reverse order, thus 1st Place = 5 points down to 5th Place = 1 Point 1 Point for the 1st to 5th Place in the private coding round (if valid script was posted in public round) Each participant will be scored according to their lowest posted KiXgolf score in either the public or private round. So, get your favorite text script editors ready, polish your clubs, and start practicing.

Gargoyle Gargoyle MM club member Registered: 2004-03-09 Posts: 1597 Loc: Valley of the Sun (Arizona, US...	Can you clarify this rule for me.... Quote: 7) During the private coding phase, no code is allowed to be posted. Violations result in disqualification of said player. As I am not the greatest at knowing all of the shortcuts that others use (but I am picking them up slowly), is it permissible to ask for direction on how to shorten code. As an example: Code: For $Counter = 0 to Len($Something) Tends to be golfed to Code: For $ = 0 to $S + 1 ^ 0 _________________________ Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

DrillSergeant DrillSergeant MM club member Registered: 2004-07-09 Posts: 1164 Loc: Eijsden, the Netherlands	I've tried to start a golf manual many times, but I don't know which golf tricks need explanation and which don't... If you like explanations of specific code used in the previous public kixgolf rounds, you post them here, and I'll promise to write an explanation. Maybe after a while we can condens it to a short manual. _________________________ The Code is out there

DrillSergeant DrillSergeant MM club member Registered: 2004-07-09 Posts: 1164 Loc: Eijsden, the Netherlands	btw, to explain the statement above Len($var) can also be written as ($var^) or $var^0 The second option usualy works as the maximum var for a for-next-loop, and the first one if you're using it in calculations. But because the second one is one stroke shorter, it's worth to try if it works. _________________________ The Code is out there

Sealeopard Sealeopard KiX Master Registered: 2001-04-25 Posts: 11164 Loc: Boston, MA, USA	Rule 7 is exactly that, no code $\:\)$ So, even asking how to simplify a line of code may provide enough hints to other participants on how to tackle the problem. You can always ask to have code dissected in the public round or study prior public rounds to see how code works.

Sealeopard Sealeopard KiX Master Registered: 2001-04-25 Posts: 11164 Loc: Boston, MA, USA	I have updated rule #2 (again). I hope we now have the right balance. Quote: 32) Additional test cases can be added at any time during the KiXgolf round. The code is expected to pass based on the rules. The test cases may not include tests for all rules and exceptions. Test cases that are added during the public round will not alter the results of the private round. I encourage you to post new tests during the private round if you find them. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.
