As a general CSS reset applied across all elements of a website, use the below. I’ve included some (not very helpful) comments to explain the most common use case I have found for each of the properties. * { margin: 0;/* the amount of space that a paragraph has by...

We have a floor, with an N + 2 number of tiles. The tiles are ordered 0 to N + 1 and a there’s a hole at tile number x. We introduce a ball that bounces at a steady rate of k tiles, starting from 0 and then moving to...

The solution to SOLBLTY from Codechef’s May Challenge 2021 Division 3 (Rated). We start off with 1000ml of water that can be dissolved at Ag/100ml. For a unit increase in temperature, the solubility of sugar increases by Bg/100ml.

Below is a solution for both test sets of Training (7pts, 13pts), Round A of Kick Start 2019. It first sorts all the students by descending order of skill and then calculates the number of hours required for a ‘fair’ n - (p - 1) combinations to find the minimum...

Problem HMAPPY2 in the February Challenge 2019 Code Chef (Division 2) basically required finding the number of integers between 1 and N that are divisible by an integer A and not divisible by an integer B or divisible by B and not divisible by A. If the number was found...

Given an array of a maximum of 9 strings, the below code outputs the lexicographically lowest concatenation of said strings. A normal sort function would compare string a < string b but will not output the lexicographically lowest combination given there a different number of characters in each string, hence...

This finds, given an integer, the number of pairs of perfect squares whose sum equal that number. t is the array of integers for which we will run the program.

bLazy, Echo.js, Yet Another Lazy Loader, jQuery / Wordpress plugins are some of the many libraries designed to speed up initial load, reduce data usage, lighten server load as well as provide a host of other benefits resulting from a site not attempting to call and display every image, script,...

What this does is read integer by integer from cin and insert it at the beginning of a string variable. The string variable is then printed to cout. Another way to do this would be to create a vector, store the integers and then print it in reverse - but...

In the 2019 SnackDown, the problem Chef and Semi-Primes (CHEFPRMS) required that given an integer N, one must determine whether it can be expressed as a sum of two square-free semi-primes. The time limit is 1s for a maximum number of test cases of 200, where the maximum value of...

Problem QUALPREL in the Online Qualifiers of the Code Chef SnackDown 2019 required that given a N number of scores S and an integer K, one should output the number the number of scores that are higher than or equal to the Kth highest score.

The Small Test Set for Round 1A Google Code Jam 2018 required that given an n number of test cases (each containing information on the number of rows and columns of a waffle (waffle squares?) and whether or not each waffle square has a chocolate chip) one should determine whether...

The Daily Coding Problem (Day 3) was given an array of integers, to return the first postive integer missing. The inputed array could contain duplicate and negative numbers. For instance, given an array of [-2 -1, 4, 4, 1, 3], the program should return 2. The solution below was to...

The Daily Coding Problem (Day 2) was given an array of integers, to return another array of integers consisting of the product of all the integers of the original array except the one at place i (i being the place of each integer in the original list). For instance, an...

This is the second piece of C++ code I’ve written. It’s bound to be awful - do forgive me. It’s the solution to the 2018 Google Code Jam Qualifying Round B. I’m going to split the solution into parts.

This is the first time I’m writing a C++ code (or program or whatever). I decided I would learn a new langauge for the Google Code Jam and I’m going to do that by just attempting the previous years’ questions. This is the working solution for ‘Saving The Universe Again’...

jQuery’s fadeToggle() is literally the easiest way to fade in and fade out elements - onmouseover, onclick or whatever. But what if we wanted the same effect using only CSS? Below is a short code to achieve a fade-in fade-out effect on hover - purely using CSS transitions:

Last week, I completed a pen that turned any image into swaying cloth. At first, it had 0 hits but the next day, after it was picked, I got over 1139 hits in a matter of 24 hours. That’s why I decide to write a post on how to create...
