Problem 287 - Unlabeled

Back to General discussions forum

I have all my codeabbey solutions saved locally for reference, and I was sorting them into folders by volumes recently.

I noticed that Problem 287 (aka Palindrome Frog) doesn't have a volume, or a label at all for that matter!

Is this is a mistake or intended? If it's a mistake-- is it possible to add tags for a problem to fix it?

Thanks.

EDIT: I've already summoned admin, this might be a bug.

Hi Friend! Thanks for reminder, it is very good point :)

Surely not a bug but solely my fault - "tags" for a number of recent problems are yet missing.

Let me try to rehabilitate and fix them in a day or two.

Ah! My greatest apologies— I simple assumed it might be a "bug" in the sense that you might have already added the tags, but they were simply not showing.

Thanks for the clarification! I would greatly appreciate the fix.

Thanks for managing this website so diligently-- I am very grateful for all that you do.

Thanks for your kind words :) though you see, not diligent enough!

One of the difficulties is that sometimes I can't immediately understand what labels to add since problems created by our guru colleagues are often over my skills :)))

For Palindrome Frog now category is "puzzle" but there are 37 more tasks without labels, I borrowed the word unlabeled which you proposed and set this tag for them so they can be easily filtered (by me also) and hopefully I'll soon finish categorizing them either!

Understood!

The unlabeled tag sounds like a great idea! Palindrome Frog looks like it would be a puzzle, yes.

Here's just a suggestion: maybe when you accept a problem from someone else, you could ask them to confirm label first?

For the currently unlabeled problems, maybe you could take a look at the solutions to see which type of problem the problem is?

Again, these are just suggestions-- I'm sure that, eventually, the unlabeled problems shall be labeled! :)
