Show HN: A text-based programming game
jindosh.comI like this idea. The Gaming interface make the learning process of programming more fun. I'm stuck on the 1st stage too. How about make the programming problem random? Or user can pre-set the difficulty? Try to bypass it and continue challenge :)
Unfortunately, the question after is harder :( but I am working on a Christmas themed story and I'll be sure to make it easier. Any other thoughts or insights that might make it better?
I think this would be great as a resource for programming students. What are your plans with it?
I tried enterprise sales and then realized enterprise sales are really hard so I moved what I had to see how consumers reacted to it. I've had better results from just talking to programmers and I'm not really sure what to do with it.
I am very open to suggestions, appreciate you trying it out btw :)
This looks fun. I'm stuck on the first one though. "Verify" says my solution works, but when I submit, it says my code failed a test case. Is this intentional, and I failed some hidden test that isn't given in the examples?
Yea, there are a few hidden test cases so people don't hardcode in the answers. A quick hint for the first one is to use a stack, it makes the question much easier.
