Square Conference Table

Square Conference Table

Moderate+

You must combine several long desks to make a square conference table of the specified size.

  • The input values are the widths of the long desks (tuples of integer) and the side length of the table (integer). The long desks have any width and their depth is always 1.
  • The answer is the combinations of long desks that make the four sides of the table. It must be a list of 4 tuples, each tuple being one or more integers. The adjacent tuples in the resulting list to actually represent adjacent sides of the table.

NOTE:

  • Since there can be more than one correct answer, using a checker.
  • All tests have correct answers.
  • You don't always have to use up all the long desks.

Input: The long desks (a tuple of integers) and the side length of the table (a integer).

Output: The combinations of the long desks (a list of 4 tuples of integers).

square_conference_table((1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4), 4) :
ex_1: ex_2:
example_01 example_02
[(4,), (3,), (2,1), (2,)] [(4,), (2,), (4,), (2,)]

Precondition:

  • len(long_desks) <= 20
  • side_length <= 60

Examples:

from itertools import chain
from collections import Counter
from typing import Callable


def checker(fn: Callable, ds: tuple[int, ...], s: int) -> bool:
    result = fn(ds, s)
    if Counter(chain(*result)) <= Counter(ds):
        difs = [s - sum(r) for r in result]
        return difs in ([1, 1, 1, 1], [2, 0, 2, 0], [0, 2, 0, 2]) or sorted(difs) == [0, 1, 1, 2]
    return False


assert checker(square_conference_table, (1, 2, 2, 3, 4), 4) is True
assert checker(square_conference_table, (3, 3, 3, 3), 4) is True
assert checker(square_conference_table, (1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5), 5) is True
assert checker(square_conference_table, (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), 6) is True

CheckiO Extensions

CheckiO Extensions allow you to use local files to solve missions. More info in a blog post.

In order to install CheckiO client you'll need installed Python (version at least 3.8)

Install CheckiO Client first:

pip3 install checkio_client

Configure your tool

checkio --domain=py config --key=

Sync solutions into your local folder

checkio sync

(in beta testing) Launch local server so your browser can use it and sync solution between local file end extension on the fly. (doesn't work for safari)

checkio serv -d

Alternatevly, you can install Chrome extension or FF addon

checkio install-plugin
checkio install-plugin --ff
checkio install-plugin --chromium

Read more here about other functionality that the checkio client provides. Feel free to submit an issue in case of any difficulties.
