You see now an extended ranking list.
Code Part OK signals the modules that have passed the function test against the Test Sets in OEX
1 => Part1 OK, 2 => Part2 OK, 3 => Part 1+2 are OK, - => nothing OK the position indicates the day.
ok% is the percentage of parts verified OK of the 100 parts in totals in the competition.

Hi all,
The first half of the competition is over!

To anticipate questions related to the ranking:
My sorting is Stars > verified ObjectScript (ok%) > Scores
After finish when 50 Stars + ok=100% are reached Scores defines the ranking.

Hello, has anyone received this result in Day1 - Part Two puzzle ?

I think my answer it's correct and I've checked the puzzle input and it seems correct... xD

Thanks!

Robert Cemper · Dec 13, 2023

Try to check your code against the 2 test sets in my OEX package:
sometimes there is a problem if the last line of input.txt is missing a line terminator.
try to keep always an empty line in the end.

Daniel Aguilar · Dec 13, 2023

Thanks Robert, it seems that my code has an error because it doesn't match with your results. I will keep trying. Thank you so much!

Yuval Golan · Dec 13, 2023

Your problem might be the one I encountered - for the string "onenineight" the number is 18 and not 19

Robert Cemper · Dec 13, 2023

indeed the numbers sometimes overlap:
twoneight became. 218 !! that was really nasty
only removing the first found char was the workaround

Daniel Aguilar · Dec 13, 2023

No, it wasn't my problem I tried and works with this input, but thanks!!

Daniel Aguilar · Dec 14, 2023

Yuval Golan, Robert Cemper
Finally I've found my mistake. My script failed with this kind of lines:

onersfkelkje345one

Because I only searched for a coincidence of words once

Thank you both for your help!

Hi all,
All challenges of AOC 2023 are published.
You are invited to publish your solutions before Dec.28th:
I'll clone your repos on early Dec 28th. no late coming.

To be clear only ObjectScript is accepted, no embedded Python or other
Testing is done with IRIS for Windows (x86-64) 2023.2 (Build 227U)
Docker containers are not part of this check.
No problem If you don't have all solutions you just rank later
My personal special thanks go to the 4 participants, that helped me to set up the test methods.

Actual ranking by verified completion in ObjectScript
