The programmers puzzle [1 week]

You could say the game this giveaway is for, so people can skip it if they own it already :P

I own it, but it was a nice and simple puzzle which I wouldn't skip anyway ;)

Oh boy, programs.

Ah.....

hands in nerdcard

walks away in shame

Too easy ;)

stuck on first question. Don't know what "\1" do.

Q1: RegEx. I created a mini OS from scratch (it only edits text), but fuck regex, I refuse to learn it. It is my crutch and I bear it proudly.

AWESOME HINT was here, lol=/

Yay for great puzzle! =]

I tried Q4 in an online compiler, than on Visual Studio.
They both had the exact same error message, but the exception shown doesn't work.

what is the syntax for Q4 ? i mean is it "<anserw> exception" or juz <anserw> ?

Thanks for this puzzle!

anyone programming in Pascal ? need help for 1 task :D add me if :)

I'm starting to learn this now, lol as I see I'm an idiot programmer.

I like to see how much takes this practice to make? to know how stupid I'm XD https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/Pr%C3%A1ctica%20Examen.pdf?w=AAD7ofo09k9D-ETrxjx8Aol9hYYygB_3Me4lYuvPOsa_JQ To translate you can just CTRL + A and paste on Google translator, Spanish to English.

You have to do all these working on C/C++: int FechaValida(const char cad); means validate date, int EnteroValido(const char cad, int val); means validate integer or entire, int RealValido(const char cad, double val); means Real Validate, int FechaComp(const char cad1, const char cad2); Date compare, TIPO ObtenerTipo(const char valor); means get/obtain type, void Trim(char cad);, int NumCampos(const char lin, const char sep); means NumFields, int ObtenerCampo(const char lin, const char sep, int pos, char campo); means obtain field( all these are only suggestions, so you need to make more.) How much takes to do all of these?

Could I ask for hints for Q4?
What am I doing wrong if the only exception I get is S.NR which doesn't work?
I think I tried every possible format to enter that too.

Yeah, I am definitely stuck on number 1.

No idea where to start on it.

This is ridiculous... I brute forced every exception in the list and nothing worked. -.-

Oh man, I'm so bad at RegExps.
