[numbers] Submitting the contest: last question

I don't speak english very well, and this confused me.

Today is 1 Nov 2003, deadline is on 3, so i have to send my script! I have some problems understanding this: what to ouput, what to write in logfile?

checkme != 1
write the total
log file with the results

checkme == 1
write what?
log file? with only the results?

I'm VERY CONFUSED

Thanks all

if(checkme==1) {
/* output a HTML form that I can
enter 6 numbers and a target number
into. This will enable me to
check any single problem.
No need to output a log file */
} elseif (checkme != 1) {
/* output the total number of solutions.
also output a log file with results. */
}

To clarify, if '&checkme=1' is appended we must present a form for Matt to enter a single problem, which then gets solved when the form gets submitted, and I assume that this solving gets shown on-screen, without a logfile.

However, if 'checkme' is not there, we should expect an input file to be provided, by something something like '&input=somefile.txt', and only then should we write a logfile.

This is how I understand it. This isn't rocket-science.

And in the logfile we must show the problem and then all the solutions on the lines below.

Thanks! And now, really the last


only good and no-duplicated results? Or we have to output something like

found 70 candidate results.
...
.. // results with duplicates
..
...

after removing duplicates i have 20 results:
...
.. // non-duplicated ones
...
...

?

And, second: if checkme==1 we will have no input file, only the set of numbers you will enter, isn't it?

after this i submit my script =)

Just the good final results need to be in the log file...

These two statements contradict each other.

Actually, never mind... just read this:
