🟨🟦🟥 DropBlox 🟩🟧🟪

Welcome! I'm assuming you came here to give this coding challenge a try, great! After all, you could be the one to win the big price... So, let's get right to it!

Quickstart 🎬

You can either:

Open the Colab example

Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/godatadriven/dropblox.git

and open quick_start.ipynb ✓

The rules 📜

Points scheme

The task is simple: given a rectangular field and a set of predefined blocks, fill the field with the blocks and aim to get the highest score.

How do you score high? That depends on the colors of the blocks you used, the rows you filled and the amount of empty cells in the final field.

Submitting solutions

Don't worry, we took away most of the annoying work so you can focus on strategy. All you have to do is write a .txt file where each line specifies which block (by block ID) to drop in the field, and at which x-coordinate.

Check out the Quickstart example on how to generate the solutions file.
