Introducing Pair Programming on CheckiO: Elevating Collaborative Coding

CheckiO is thrilled to unveil a new addition to our platform: Pair Programming. This innovative tool is designed to enhance the way users engage in coding, collaboration, and learning.

What is Pair Programming?

Pair Programming transforms your online code editor into a collaborative workspace. With this feature, you can create a pair programming session that generates a unique URL. Share this URL with friends, classmates, or colleagues, and they can join your session in real-time. This tool is perfect for working together on coding challenges, brainstorming solutions, and enhancing the learning experience through teamwork.

How to Use Pair Programming

To start a pair programming session, simply access your online code editor on CheckiO and initiate the feature. Once your session is active, share the generated URL with your desired collaborators.

When your collaborator follows the URL, you grant him edit permission.

It’s a seamless process designed to foster an environment of learning and teamwork.

A Key Feature of CheckiO ClassRoom

Pair Programming is an essential part of the recent CheckiO ClassRoom update. This update aims to enrich the educational experience for both students and teachers. Teachers can now monitor their students' activities more effectively and even join their editor sessions to offer direct assistance and guidance.

We will tell more about new ClassRoom tools in the next article.

Beta Testing Phase

We are currently in the beta testing phase of this feature. We understand that new tools can have teething issues, so we kindly ask for your patience and feedback. If you encounter any problems or glitches while using Pair Programming, please don't hesitate to let us know. Your feedback is invaluable, and we are committed to resolving any issues promptly to enhance your experience.

Your Participation Matters

As we navigate through the beta phase of Pair Programming, your participation and feedback are crucial. We are dedicated to creating an environment that not only enhances coding skills but also promotes collaborative learning and problem-solving.

​​Special Promo Code for Our Community

To celebrate this launch, we're offering a 20% discount on the Year Awesome Account (valid until the end of 2023)! Use the promo code lGvltFo8gBwk at checkout to enjoy this exclusive offer. It's our way of saying thank you for being part of our community and joining us on this exciting journey.

We invite you to try out this exciting new feature immediately with the following new mission about parsing a chemical formula and become a part of the innovative community at CheckiO !

🏁 MISSION:

Chemical Analysis by likewind - As the input you'll get a chemical formula and a number limit. Your task is to create a sequence of chemical elements, which are in the amount of >= limit in the formula.

Pay attention, that in some formulas brackets (), [] will be used. They have different meaning in chemistry, but from the point of calculating number of atoms they both work the same way - as ordinary parenthesis in mathematical expression.

atoms("H2O", 2) == ["H"]
atoms("Mg(OH)2", 1) == ["H", "Mg", "O"]
atoms("K4[ON(SO3)2]2", 4) == ["K", "O", "S"]

🙌 Thanks for your attention! Hope to meet you at CheckiO. We are really interested in your thoughts! Please, leave a comment below! ⤵
