In the game of Chess, the King can move to any of (at most) 8 adjacent cells in a turn. "Adjac...
This question has a similar set up to Find an array that fits a set of sums although is quite different in its goals.
Consider an array A of length n. The array contains only positive integers. For example A = (1,1,2,2). Let us define f(A) as the set of sums of all the non-empty contiguous sub...
Precomputing data (including compile-time computation) to achieve lower runtime in fastest-code challenges
Consider a challenge where solutions must print out as many Fibonacci numbers as possible within a certain time limit. A C++ solution might look like this:
#include <iostream>
using name...
You probably all know the 7-segment display which can display among other things all digits from \$0\dots 9\$:
Challenge
We only consider the segments \$\texttt{A}\dots\texttt{G}\$, your task is to decode a single digit given which segments are turned on.
This can be encoded as an 8-bit inte...

You have to print a tennis court, but you have to do it in the fewest bytes possible because of confidential re...
