Introduction to WebIDE

1. The Best Widget Ever — WebIDE

To make it comfy for you to solve tasks, we’ve built a special widget — WebIDE. It looks kinda like this:

On the left, you see the task description and the list of requirements your solution needs to meet. In the center — the editor where you'll write your solution. The bottom panel displays the text your program outputs to the screen.

2. Main Commands

You can see the buttons at the top:

• Check: send your solution for testing.
• Help — a dropdown menu that contains:
  • Hint: get a hint for the current task.
  • Community Help: ask the community for advice on your solution.
  • Correct Solution: display the author’s solution to the task.
  • Restore My Code: go back to your code after viewing the correct solution.
  • Reset Solution: clear your solution so you can start over.
• Discussion: discuss the task with other users.
• Run: run your program without sending it for testing (doesn’t increase the check count).
• Code Analysis: get style hints for your solution.

3. What Buttons to Press

Once you've written your program (the task solution), hit the "Check" button. Your program will be sent to our server where it will run and be automatically checked.

If you can’t seem to come up with a solution, use the hint (don’t go banging your head against the wall). In the "Help" menu, click the "Hint" button. You can also view the correct solution by clicking the "Correct Solution" button.

Are you ready? Here's your first task:
