Google Code Jam SharpDevelop Add-in

GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin is an add-in for SharpDevelop IDE which allows you to create a template solution for problems from Google Code Jam contests.

Prerequisites

  1. .NET Framework 4.0 or higher (or any compatible, like Mono 2.8+). Solution templates use Parallel LINQ in order to run several tests simultaneously.
  2. SharpDevelop 4.0 or higher.
  3. git
  4. Any ZIP packaging tool. Unfortunately, Windows doesn't built-in command line zip tool, so I didn't unclude packaging script into the project. You have to zip files by yourself (instructions below).

Packaging and Installation

  1. git clone git://github.com/DNNX/GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin.git
  2. Archive GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin directory into GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin.zip.
  3. Rename GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin.zip to GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin.sdaddin.
  4. Double-click GoogleCodeJamSharpDevelopAddin.sdaddin and confirm installation.

Basic Usage

  1. Start SharpDevelop.
  2. Go to File -> Create New Project.
  3. Choose "Google Code Jam Solution Project" under C# / Windows Applications.
  4. Specify project name. I usually use name of a problem I'm going to solve.
  5. Click "Create".

New solution template will be created with unit tests. Now you ready to create a test based on sample input/output from the problem.

Running Tests

  1. Go to View -> Tools -> Unit Tests.
  2. In a new pad, click "Run all tests" button. Of cource, all the tests will be red.

Writing Solution

Just open %PROBLEM_NAME%.cs file and override 2 methods: ReadTestCase and Solve. The first one reads/parses single test case from an input stream, the second one solves that case.
