Validation
We advise you to make use of the following solution checking functionality in order to make sure that you have understood the constraints (and also to check that there are no bugs in your program).
The solution checking problem can be accessed here on line.
The problem file should end in .exam and the solution file in .sln. The solution file produced by your algorithm should be in the format described in the Output Format section.
The output produced by the program will be sent to the screen. A summary of information regarding the problem file is provided. Based on this, the algorithm will check to see if the provided solution contains any violations of hard constraints and then will calculate the soft constraint violations. A 'summary' of the solution is then provided.
If the 'show violations' box is checked, details will be provided of each violation.
