Tried it, but failed. Alas.
That said, it was very enlightening to me just how anxious I was! There is really no downside whatsoever to the challenge, and the possibility of a quick $100, yet I was still questioning whether I should do it.
So, I encourage you, do it! Failing is not that bad. :-p
- roryokane 15y agoI agree. It was thanks to your comment that I tried the challenge. I didn’t win, but the challenge was totally fair and I feel like I could have won had I been more familiar with algorithms. Even though I failed, I did get a quick refresher on the algorithm in question and learned a new Python standard library function. So next time this kind of opportunity appears, people, try it! (I say next time because I think the Quixey Challenge is about to end.)
- losvedir 15y agoAh, thanks for the comment. I'm glad my comment spurred you to give it a try!
