| I like this idea! I'd like to try this out again when the API is online again, and I can get a few other people I know online too. It was nice that readyoursicp joined me for a few minutes in the room to chat though. A lot of this is off-the-cuff, and not match up with what you're aiming for here. Hopefully some of it is useful though. 1. During the process, I couldn't quite figure out how I was doing or what I was doing wrong. One example was the determining if a number is a palindrome or not. I didn't see indication about if I was failing certain tests in the test suite, or if I had an issue with syntax, etc. Some more feedback would help here. 2. A minor thing, but on my laptop I noticed that while the line would wrap, the code itself is running under the chat portion of the room. Makes it harder to edit. 3. I think the room concept is nice, especially if I just want to jump into a certain class of problems and go. However, it would be cool if you could have one room indefinitely. Perhaps a private room of sorts? 4a. It would be nice if you could request the difficulty of problem in the room itself. Right now you need to make a new room to match the difficulty, but I think that having problems come to that room might be nice. 4b. In addition to requesting difficulty of problems, requesting kinds of problems might be nice too. I can imagine a CS student being in some kind of data structures/algorithms class and wanting to focus on that specifically. Something like "medium difficulty problems involving trees" or "hard problems involving strings." Anyway, cool project and good work! |
