Due by 11:59pm on Friday, March 9, in my email inbox. Attach the source code of your program, which must be a single file.
The late penalty is one point per hour (or fraction thereof).
Using the language you selected, write a program to solve the Pascal’s Travels problem from the 2005 archives of the ACM Mid-Central USA Regional Programmming Contest. The precise input and output format is specified (including filenames), and your output must match byte-for-byte. I will put your program and the input file in the same directory when I test it. Your program must consist of one source file called “pascal.xyz”, where xyz is an appropriate extension for your language. (Rexx programmers, use “.rexx” instead of “.cmd”.)
Grading will be on a twenty-point scale, based on the number of test cases successfully completed. You have the judge’s solution available as a guide, but you are not required to use the same algorithm. In fact, you will learn more if you solve it from scratch. Remember, this problem is just one of nine that were designed to be solved during one five-hour contest.
