Hardware Upgrade

A note to our contest alumni: We’ve upgraded our scoring machine for this contest. Here are the two specs for comparison:

Old machine: Dual Pentium III, 800MHz, 256KB cache, 512MB RAM
New machine: Dual Pentium D (64 bit, dual core), 2.80GHz, 1024 KB cache, 1GB RAM

We’ve also upgraded our OS to the 64-bit Linux version and are running the latest version of MATLAB, R2006a.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
