The instructions are below the list of puzzles - "Follow all of the following directions or your submission may be considered incorrect."

It's automated grading, so it's nitpicky about the submission format, etc.



You have to be very careful about spaces and returns on some of them as well. Fortunately they tend to have short and precise output specifications.

I do wish their grading script could give a little more indication of what failed, as I'm not sure it will even tell you the difference between a build error and a test failure. If it does, great. I struggled with that a year ago when I first worked on them.
