CODE DEBUGGING GUIDELINES

How to participate?
1. Register at the link bit.ly/debugkhmwar.
2. Questions will be available at our GitHub repository
https://github.com/computerSocietyRit/Code-Debugging, and will be made public
when the event commences.
3. Clone our repository and start debugging. (NOTE: Do Not Fork our files)
4. After solving each question, commit and push your answers into your own
GitHub repositories (The time will be considered for score evaluation).
5. Create a separate folder named CodeDebuggingKHMWar, each file (your
answer script) should be names in the format <your-name>-<question-name-as-
provided>.<fileformat>
Eg. Rahul-Question1.cpp
6. Mail us your repository links at [email protected].

Rules and Regulations:


1. The following acts will lead to instant disqualification
● Not registering for the event through the link mentioned above.
● Submitting unoriginal answers.
2. The following acts will make your submissions invalid
● Changing the provided code script more than 50% (Line wise).
● You have to add comments at the end of each code script submission
denoting the changes made at each line. Failure to do so will result in that
particular submission becoming invalid.
● Participants will have 1 hour past the deadline to push their solution.
Although, they’ll have to commit prior to deadline. If we are unable to
obtain a submission past the 1 hour period, we’ll take the submission
before that, if no such submission is found, it’ll be marked as invalid.

Score evaluation:
1. Two factors influence the score of an individual, time of a valid submission and
the number of lines altered in the code.
2. The least number of line changes will get a maximum score of 10 points. Each
additional change will result in a -1 deduction up to 5 points. After which
additional changes will not have any deduction penalty. i.e. The maximum and
minimum points you can obtain from a successful submission is 10 points and 5
points respectively.
Disclaimer: The guidelines maybe altered if need be, participants will be notified via e-
mail if such circumstances occur. The decision of the judging panel will be final and no
grievances will be tolerated.
