Welcome golfers!

Also, I'm curious how far you guys have been able to golf task 005 ! Most tasks I get to sub200, but with task 005 I'm sitting at 800 characters 💀

Though I dont have much golfing experience 😇

I’m also still at like 750 for 005.

I think it’d be nice if the leaderboard could be secured kinda soon 👍

Hey I just found this out now!
I have experience in ML and in ARC but never did a kaggle competition
Any recomendations for getting started?

agile surge
#

but if you wish to get started, you can try taking a look at the overview tab to see an example program and start off with an easy arc task

#

or look at example notebooks on the code tab

I have managed 301, but I imagine much less is possible

Hi,

Does anyone wanna colab in the competition? I have currently allt he solutions of the problem. If you know python, all we need to do is compress the solutions to optimize points 🙂

@gloomy isle do you know if the locking of public sharing notebooks this early in the competition was intentional? Usually that only happens the final week of the competition. Seeing a few threads about this: https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/google-code-golf-2025/discussion/602646 https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/google-code-golf-2025/discussion/604940 where people wanted to share their existing solutions but were blocked. No worries if intentional just seems odd considering existing public ones can still be updated.

Saw the updates on those discussions, thank you Michael!

I joined today, and it is my first golf code competition. The use of LLMs is totally fine, right?

Hey friends, i'm sure this has already been answered somewhere but why is it when I do the full validation on all 400 locally all my tasks pass, but when I submit i get a few that don't pass? I have checks to ensure python standard library as well.

Often a python version issue. I'd recommend testing in a kaggle notebook so you have a similar environment to the judge.

hasty magnet
#

whats the official python version?

livid bramble
#

3.11.something

#

If you're using exec/eval, that had some notable changes to variable scoping in later versions

hasty magnet
#

Thanks. been using my own tooling and was hoping to avoid using a kaggle notebook

hasty magnet
#

Yeah 3.11.13. issue was the exec thing. Thanks for the help!!

#

anyone have any tips on task 209?

This is the only task I haven't gotten to a score better than 1
