Used new seed.

| Jan 25, 2018 at 0:40 | comment | added | N. Virgo | @BrainStone I'm afraid I don't know what "analyzing the text during startup" means. The important thing is that your code cannot make multiple passes through the text - it can't have access to any character of the text before it makes a guess about that character. (This is why I asked for the score calculating code. If I can see that then it should be more clear what's actually happening. I did look for it in the git repo, but it's not clear to me which part of the code does what job. If you could make a self-contained piece of code for that task it would help.) | |
| Jan 24, 2018 at 14:22 | comment | added | BrainStone | @Nathaniel is my approach of analyzing the text during startup acceptable (I know I need to add line that actually initializes it) or would I need to hardcore the matrix? | |
| Jan 24, 2018 at 14:21 | comment | added | BrainStone | @user202729 my solution actually got inspired by seed. | |
| Jan 24, 2018 at 13:41 | comment | added | user202729 | Nice idea, but won't help getting a good score. +1 anyway. | |
