| CTC & TVC Author & Organizer Posts: 183      Location: Turkey | Riad Khanmagomedov - 2018-04-05  1:40 PM  amitsowani - 2018-04-05  9:56 AM  Riad Khanmagomedov - 2018-04-04  1:21 PM  chaotic_iak - 2018-04-04  9:20 AM  In 11 can the ball cross its own path? No. So this translates to - each half white and fully white cell needs to be visited exactly once? The white cell can be crossed twice. The path should not overlap with itself. I don’t get it, can the road cross itself or not? Because your first answer is “No”, and the second one is “Yes”. Did you mean that a horizontal road segment and a vertical road segment can cross on a fully white cell? Are we talking about the 2017 April’s Opti-Roll puzzle; the road act same in here about crossing? | ||

| Posts: 1 Location: Germany | Riad Khanmagomedov - 2018-04-03  3:21 PM  Para - 2018-04-03  7:00 PM  For 10. Does minimum mean the amount of digits or the sum of their values? For 11. Can you place a black triangle in a given cell with a triangle to turn it into a fully black cell? 10. Minimize the sum by using fewer digits. 11. Yes. Questions for 11: Could one also place two triangles in an entirely white cell, turning it entirely black? And if so, would you name the two trinagles as A and D or as B and ? Also, in what order are the tringales to be given in the solution code? If it's in order of the path (as the example seems to imply) then where/how would one put in the triangles creating a full black cell, as the path doesn't visit them ?

Are we talking about the 2017 April’s Opti-Roll puzzle; the road act same in here about crossing? I understand the question as it is translated the translator. If the issue was not the word "own", I understood it clearly. The path can intersect itself (the fully white cell can be crossed twice), but the path should not overlap with itself. | ||

The order in the solution code is arbitrary. | ||

Then a route with lenght=2 and N=0, i.e., is better that other with lenght= 40 and N=1? A route must pass through all the white cells and half cells. If N=0, then the length of route cannot be 2 (this is much less than the number of white cells and white half-cells in the picture). | ||
