[numbers] input & checkme
Does checkme=1 mean we ignore input=filename, prompt for numbers and target?

You want to see everything?

[numbers] RE: input & checkme
Will somefile.txt include a path we need to strip off before we write to somefile.out ?

checkme does mean to ignore the input param...


input file may have a path...as stated in the rules though, output will always be in the same dir as your script.

Ahh, so we need to output the log file for each input file?

the name of the outputfile should then be
php Code:
Original - php Code 
  1.  
  2. $outfilename=array_pop(explode("/", $_GET["input"])).".out";

right?

1. What method should be use for input in case "checkme=1"? Just show you <form ...>?

2. What output file name in case "checkme=0"? Like case "checkme=1", or just "echo" it?

"When called in this way, I should be able to enter the 6 numbers and the target number. Your script should then show me everything it figures out with those numbers."

So, yes a form will be fine.

regardless whether the checkme is set, you need to output a log file as described. I will clarify this in the rules.

Should we prompt for a filename (for the log file) if the &checkme is present?

How about using the value of &checkme=filename?

Your script is also required to output a log file on every run, regardless of the 'checkme' setting. This log file should contain a line read in from the input file, then all solutions you find (each on a seperate line). The log file will then contain the next line from the input file, and all its solutions, and so on. This log file should be output to the directory your script resides in and will be called {inputfile}.out. For example, if the input file is named input.txt, the output file will be called input.txt.out.


Are we to prompt for a log filename if the checkme flag is set?

Sorry...my bad. No need for a log file when checkme=1. I have updated the rules page.
