Problem Statements

General Guidelines

  • In the monthly challenges, each level may have a separate deadline that will be mentioned along with each problem statement. Eligibility of rewards is subject to strict adherence to the mentioned deadlines.
  • You are free to attempt any question beyond the deadline as well. However, the submission will not be eligible for rewards post the submission date.
  • Raise a pull request only when you are satisfied with the solution.
  • For each problem statement, a detailed form of the question has been provided in the readme files of the corresponding levels.
  • A screenshot showing the results must also be pushed along with the final submission. A brief description(not more than 4-5 lines/100 words) should be included containing the approach used for solving the problem. - Make this submission in a document format, containing both description and simulation/output screenshot(s).
  • Contributors who are able to complete all levels of a problem statement will have a chance to join the team of Reviewers.
  • The problems have been segregated in a way that you can choose the level of complexity you would like to begin with. You can directly solve the Advanced level of a problem statement, or progress towards it by attempting Beginner or Intermediate levels.
  • It goes without saying that plagiarism is strictly discouraged. Kindly refrain from the urge to do it.
