Poor quality assessment

general
1

Todays “Monday Munch - DSA Challenge 13” was the worst assessment I have done yet on this site.

  • The first problem was superfluous. (This is the case for some previous challenges too.)
  • The following problems were (very) easy (and super standard (that’s not a problem per se)).
  • The worst thing was the wrong description or wrong judge in the subset problem. It says we need to keep the original array order, but the judge wants it sorted. It also would’ve been easier to reverse engineer the intended solution if we would have been given more or a better sample test case.
  • The last problem could have had a sample matching the example given in the description. And it should also yield a Wrong Answer if the provided solution is wrong and not lead to a runtime error!

I hope the quality increases for future tests.

Apologies for the inconvenience but the question has been updated and we’ll do our best to avoid similar mistakes in future contests.

Thanks!
I’m sorry in hindsight for being so harsh. I really like the Monday Munch, but was just too frustrated this time.

Have a nice day and thank you for this great platform!
