Scoring
Participants are ranked by score and time spent coding. If two participants have the same score, the tie is broken by the contestant with the shortest scored time. Your scored time is the sum of the amount of time spent on each challenge. The time begins on a challenge as soon as you open it and ends when your last submission is made to that challenge, therefore you're advised to finish a challenge before opening a new one.

Scoring

  • 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
