I downloaded the version from the repository and I haven't been able to download any problem, I get this error message just after: You have given ID = {x}

https://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ProblemDetail&rd=4490&pm=1650

https://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ProblemDetail&rd=5069&pm=1650
for Single Round Match 194 Round 1 - Division II, Level One
so at this problem I need to try gettc pm=1650 rd=5069
because gettc pm=1650 rd=4490 can't get we needed result.
as a author,can you tell me how to change rd, so I can use gettc 1650 rc=5069 to get I wanting result.

Dear Seri,

I know the whole purpose of gettc is to test top coder questions offline and I have no problem using gettc offline. I am looking at an alternate situation where I test a small set Java Code in ruby web application online. I am thinking of using gettc to retrieve the folders (for the problem id) and then uploading the folders to my web application. Would I still be able to run the test cases for those folders online? do you have a work around for my situation?

I use college internet, that requires proxy. Using gettc gived errors like:

C:\Users\shivshnkr>gettc 11127
You have given ID = 11127
getaddrinfo: No such host is known.

I have an issue for this at

After instaling gettc in ubuntu 18.01 i got this error

It appears that something has changed at Topcoder side. See below for the error that I get.

I installed Ubuntu 11.10, and then installed ruby1.9.1 and gettc. However, when I ran "gettc 11138", I got the following error:

$ gettc 11138
You have given ID = 11138
No such file or directory - /usr/local/bin/../dist/.

I found that after manually change a line of /usr/local/bin/gettc to the following
default_d = '/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/gettc-1.1.1/dist/.'
Then gettc works fine.

Is there any way that the script can automatically detect that directory? Thanks!

For a few problem ID's, we get the errors, and no directory is created.
For example,
$ gettc 4589
You have given ID = 4589
Downloading problem to raw HTML ... Done
Parsing problem from raw HTML ... no implicit conversion from nil to integer

$ gettc 6620
You have given ID = 6620

Parsing problem from raw HTML ... bad URI(is not URI?): http://www.topcoder.com/contest/problem/BackyardTrees/BackyardTrees1.png] [img:http://www.topcoder.com/contest/problem/BackyardTrees/BackyardTrees2.png

Thanks!

I found a bug in bin/runner.sh. In many places of runner.sh, "==" is used for testing equality, however, it seemed that "=" should be used instead (maybe a difference between C++ and BASH).

Thanks!

I changed print_case j to print_case case_id which seemed to fix it

I don't know who that code belongs to, but the bug does appear in this repository when grepping for print_case j

My old laptop was dead, and I got a macbook air, which installs ruby and rubygems by default (version 1.8.7). I installed xcode command line tool which includes gcc-4.2. I downloaded the source of gettc using git and then typed "sudo rake", and got the following errors:

....
WARNING: no rubyforge_project specified
gettc requires hpricot (>= 0, runtime)

I then typed "gettc", the bash complained "command not found". Could you give me a hint about what had happened? Thanks!

My AddElectricalWiresRunner.cpp looks like

include

using namespace TopCoder;

include "AddElectricalWires.cpp"

include

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
try {
ifstream ifs(argv[1]);
vector wires; read(ifs, wires); next(ifs);
vector gridConnections; read(ifs, gridConnections);
ifs.close();

    ofstream ofs(argv[2]);
    show(ofs, maxNewWires(wires, gridConnections));
    ofs.close();
} catch (exception &e) {
    cerr << e.what() << endl;
}
return 0;

}
I have all the required softwares installed including boost.How can this issue be figured out?

Hi Seri,
I still sometimes use your tool to solve problems in my favorite language (Haskell), but I am wondering if you could add support for Rust, OCaml, and Racket.

Cheers,
Mukesh

For some problems that have double's as output, the tests of gettc can incorrectly fail. One example is http://community.topcoder.com/stat?c=problem_statement&pm=3561&rd=6519.

For the test case 3, the expected value was "7.637495090348122E7", and the result "76374950.9050914" was deemed incorrect.
However, according to the FAQ (http://apps.topcoder.com/wiki/display/tc/SRM+Algorithm+Competition+FAQ), any answer with absolute or relative error of 1e-9 can still be deemed correct.

Thanks!

There are quite a few topcoder problem descriptions that contain ascii "images", that is, 2D images made of purely ascii symbols. Some examples are "ChessCover" (ID 202), "Checkers" (ID 204) etc. For these cases, those ascii images are distorted in the HTML files converted by gettc.

I guess using ascii symbols to display 2D images in HTML files is awkward anyway. So never mind if it's not easy to handle such cases. Thanks!

When method signature is not present, stderr is printed and the erb is failing to convert the template to file.

Example problem method signature:

Definition
--
  | Class:ChessMetricMethod:howManyParameters:int, int[], int[], intReturns:longMethod signature:long howMany(int size, int[] start, int[] end, int numMoves)(be sure your method is public) | Class: | ChessMetric | Method: | howMany | Parameters: | int, int[], int[], int | Returns: | long | Method signature: | long howMany(int size, int[] start, int[] end, int numMoves) | (be sure your method is public)
Class: | ChessMetric
Method: | howMany
Parameters: | int, int[], int[], int
Returns: | long
Method signature: | long howMany(int size, int[] start, int[] end, int numMoves)
(be sure your method is public)

Sample error output:

Another problem which causes the same issue:

When I try gettc some_id, it says "download problem to raw html ... id not available .
I did put correct values in .gettc/config.yml file.

I have specified correct username/password (I can log in topcoder.com with them) in ~/.gettc/config, but still get Wrong username or password error.
Any hints?

Python 3 support, topcoder supports python now, but the java interface looks horrible and is really buggy. It would be great to do things offline.

Steps to reproduce

download ContextFreeGrammar (problem id: 6210) and run systests

gettc 6210
ant sys

basically characters are not enclosed in single quotes

Somehow, for problem ID=10788, the test data were only downloaded for "demo", but not for "sys". The "GogoXReimuHakurai/data/sys/" directory was empty.

Thanks!
