Nick Howe (!) Wins the Saturday Leap

Nick Howe locks up yet another mid-contest challenge, the Saturday Leap. One of his entries made the biggest single improvement in score on Saturday. Gwendolyn Fisch, MikeR, Jan Langer, and Alan Chalker also made big single-entry improvements to the score. Speaking of Alan Chalker, don’t miss his comments on the contest and his commented submission.

We’ll again award a Sunday Push for the the contestant who makes the biggest cumulative improvement to the score today. To track the progress (20 minutes delayed), see “Best per Phase > Contributions in Daylight > Sunday” in the statistics.

Some interesting ideas have been contributed on the UserVoice forum. Check them out, vote up the ones you like the best, and contribute one of your own.

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).
