Coding Challenges

A compilation of my programming challenges and solutions. They are language agnostic which means most can be solved in any programming language. Each challenge is divided into a folder, called challenge{number}, and contains a README.md file with the problem description and a solution file, called answers.md, with the solution code. Feel free to contribute with your own solutions, add new challenges, or improve the existing ones by submitting a pull request. You can also suggest challenges by opening an issue with the label "challenge suggestion".

These challenges are for you if:

• You are a beginner/intermediate programmer and want to practice.
• You want to experiment with a new language.

Contributing

Please see the CONTRIBUTING.md AND the text below for more information on how to contribute.

General Steps to Add a New Challenge

Please follow the format of the existing challenges.

• Fork the repository
• if you want to add a new challenge called "New Challenge", you would create a folder called challenge{number}
• Inside the folder, you would create a README.md file with the challenge description
  • you will put the challenge name as the title with a # {name (New Challenge)}
  • you will put the challenge description as the first paragraph
  • you will put the example test case /output as a code block
• You would also create an answers.md file with the solutions
  • you will put the solutions in this general format
    • ## {Language}
    • ```{language}
    • {code}
    • ```
• Add the challenge to the SUMMARY.md file with the correct format.
• Create a pull request

Special Instructions for Rust (And Python) Solutions

MdBook features a runtime for the builtin code blocks, please include the valid code to run the test/code in the code block. You can use the following syntax to run the code block:

# fn main() { // # is used to hide this line
    let x = 5;
    let y = 6;

    println!("{}", x + y);
# } // # is used to hide this line

Therefore, all the end user will see is

    let x = 5;
    let y = 6;

    println!("{}", x + y);

In python, you will replace rust with python and replace the # with a ~ and it will output similarly.

However, they can click in the top right corner and run the code on their machine. More info here.
