[Resolved] Checker request for GC8MZQJ
March 18, 2020 09:28PM
Challenge: 6!

Objective: Find a different cache type for each factorial 6-1. Each must be in a different state/region. No event types are included.

I would like the output to look similar to this. Please add country to non-US regions:

6! = Pennsylvania Traditional: 991 of 720 required

5! = Maryland Unknown: 618 of 120 required

4! = District of Columbia Virtual: 25 of 24 required

3! = Virginia Wherigo: 22 of 6 required

2! = Alberta, Canada Earthcache: 3 of 2 required

1! = New Jersey Webcam: 1 of 1 required


Thanks!

this challenge requires new checker

I thought that was what this forum was for - to request new scripts? Otherwise I'd just clone. Please let me know what I need to do.

Thanks!

Sorry, I've mean new script.
You are in right forum, however there are two modes to make new checker.
1. make only the tag for existing script (a couple of lines of configuration)
2. make completely new script (houndeds of lines of code plus the tag)
I've mean that in this case a new script is required as no existing script may be configured for this kind of challenge.

Is that because of the combination of type and region? Otherwise the factorial can be coded as the quantities of 720, 120, 24, 6, 2, and 1 if that helps.

Thanks,

It's problem of combination of types/regions. However it's not a problem. I'm writing new script, it will be reusable for other similar challenges. Give me some hour.

this is the code for the listing:

it is new script, it has about 150 lines

This is great. Just one adjustment needed. Events are excluded.

Thanks!
Re: Checker request for GC8MZQJ

ok, events are excluded. Sorry, I've miss the condition
So, now I've excluded
"xxx Lost and Found Event Cache",
"xxx Locationless (Reverse) Cache",
"xxx Mega-Event Cache",
"xxx Event Cache",
"xxx Cache In Trash Out Event",
"xxx Giga-Event Cache",

the following types remain allowed. Tell me if you want to exclude something of these

"Traditional Cache",
"Unknown Cache",
"Multi-cache",
"Earthcache",
"Letterbox Hybrid",
"Virtual Cache",
"Wherigo Cache",
"Webcam Cache",
"GPS Adventures Exhibit",
"Project APE Cache",
"Groundspeak Block Party",
"Groundspeak HQ",
"Groundspeak Lost and Found Celebration"

You can exclude the bottom five. Thanks so much!
Re: Checker request for GC8MZQJ
March 22, 2020 01:28PM
ok, now remains only 8 types:
"Traditional Cache",
"Unknown Cache",
"Multi-cache",
"Earthcache",
"Letterbox Hybrid",
"Virtual Cache",
"Wherigo Cache",
"Webcam Cache",

you should put this list in the listing to avoid any doubt

I'm sorry, I didn't proofread very well. Can you change "founds" to "finds"?

You have found:
required founds type area
720 1628 Traditional Cache United States-Maryland
120 136 Unknown Cache United States-West Virginia
24 73 Multi-cache United States-Pennsylvania
6 25 Virtual Cache United States-Virginia
2 3 Earthcache United States-District of Columbia
1 1 Letterbox Hybrid United States-New Jersey
