Most Important guidelines

It is only through the assignments that one learns the most about the algorithms and data structures. You are advised to refrain from searching for a solution on the net or from a notebook or from other fellow students. Remember - Before cheating the instructor, you are cheating yourself. The onus of learning from a course lies first on you. So act wisely while working on this assignment.
Refrain from collaborating with the students of other groups. If any evidence is found that confirms copying, the penalty will be very harsh. Refer to the website at the link: Anti-Cheating Policy regarding the departmental policy on cheating.
This assignment has to be done in groups of 2 only. It is your responsibility to find a partner.
In case of any issues, mail at taruntk@cse.iitk.ac.in (and not to instructor).

Each challenge has a pre-determined score.
A participant’s score depends on the number of test cases a participant’s code submission successfully passes.
If a participant submits more than one solution per challenge, then the participant’s score will reflect the highest score achieved. In a game challenge, the participant's score will reflect the last code submission.
Participants are ranked by score. If two or more participants achieve the same score, then the tie is broken by the total time taken to submit the last solution resulting in a higher score
