Error in evaluation procedure

[jzbontar]

Hi,

there is an error in your evaluation procedure. Line "if(t.quantity <= 0) tasksDone++;" should be changed to " if(t.quantity == 0) tasksDone++;". Also can you please remove my newest solution, because it exploits this flaw. Thank you.

Thanks for the notice. There was a more general problem with the profit that could get arbitrarily low and, in particular, negative. Should be fixed now.
Best, Marcin Wojnarski

Would you like to put new (fixed) version of the evaluation procedure in public section of the repository? It is hard to precisely understand scoring algorithm (restrictions) without source code. For example the task description does not mention that 'quantityToDo' in the output plan is integral number, did you applied the suggestion about 'if(t.quantity == 0)', did you check nonnegativity of the 'quantityToDo' values and so on.

Hi. Here it is, public now, latest version: JobScheduling class.

quantityToDo must be an integer (note added in task description) and non-negativity is checked now - thanks for remarks.

if(t.quantity <= 0) - is left as it was, because planning more than necessary is not a major bug, it still makes possible to score the algorithm.

Yep, sorry. Is it better now?

That is ok now. Thank you.
