[Resolved] Checker request for GCAA8CH

Hello,

If anyone could assist with creating a new checker, it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the criteria for challenge:



"Find at least one cache from each of the 10 ZIP code regions within the United States. A cache found in any state/district/territory in a particular zone will satisfy that entire zone.


The zones are broken down as follows:

Zone 0:
-Connecticut
-Massachusetts
-Maine
-New Hampshire
-New Jersey
-Puerto Rico
-Rhode Island
-US Virgin Islands
-Vermont

Zone 1:
-Delaware
-New York
-Pennsylvania

Zone 2:
-District of Columbia
-Maryland
-North Carolina
-South Carolina
-Virginia
-West Virginia

Zone 3:
-Alabama
-Florida
-Georgia
-Mississippi
-Tennessee

Zone 4:
-Indiana
-Kentucky
-Michigan
-Ohio

Zone 5:
-Iowa
-Minnesota
-Montana
-North Dakota
-South Dakota
-Wisconsin

Zone 6:
-Illinois
-Kansas
-Missouri
-Nebraska

Zone 7:
-Arkansas
-Louisiana
-Oklahoma
-Texas

Zone 8:
-Arizona
-Colorado
-Idaho
-New Mexico
-Nevada
-Utah
-Wyoming

Zone 9:
-Alaska
-American Samoa
-California
-Guam
-Hawaii
-Northern Mariana Islands
-Oregon
-Washington


The following will NOT be counted for this challenge:

-Locationless Caches
-Adventure Labs
-Caches from the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, or Palau
-Caches that would fall under the APO/FPO/DPO category (aka- locations outside the US)
-This cache does not count for your Zone 2 requirement, you must find another cache within Zone 2"




So, in total, the minimum amount of caches someone would need to qualify would be 10, one from each zone.

Hello 614Buckeye,

You can use:

Please test it, and let me know if it is as requested or if it requires further modification.

Thanks,

When I was testing the checker, I noticed that Virginia was placed into Zone 2 and Zone 3 in the checker formula. It only needs to be in Zone 2.

Other than that, everything else is in the right place.
