Rules for the Coding Challenge

Before you upload your solution, consider the following rules:

• Code must be valid, compile and execute under 30 seconds on our server. For final validation code will be run against a different secret data set.
  
• To avoid simplistic solutions getting a time advantage, only solutions that are within 80% of the longest valid solution submitted will be compared.
  
• The following programming languages are allowed: C, C++, Java or Python
  
• Upload process will validate output, but code subject to later validation.
  
• You will later be asked to upload your solution to an online judge.
  

The final score will be determined by the following formula:

length_solution / execution_time
