Unable to write solution code in text area

#1

When I read the solution file, it is read as:

‘#include\nusing namespace std;\nint main(){\n\twhile(true){\n\t\tint n;\n\t\tcin >> n;\n\t\tif(n==42)\n\t\t\treturn 0;\n\t\telse\n\t\t\tcout << n << endl;\n\t}\n\treturn 0;\n}’

Now, when I try to copy this in the editor area using send_keys( ), it does’nt work. I also tried doing the same using normal text and it works just fine.

hey @SanchitSayala ,
does it shows any error or something or does it just doesn’t get send to editor.

Kindly let me know this

#3

Instead of copying the code to the textarea, it opens this link:

With a bit experimentation with different inputs, I noticed that the textarea doesn’t support tabs. So each time it encountered a ‘\t’ it jumped to the next element and ended up in tutorials link given at the end of the page.
Is there a way around this problem?

#4

yeah it will work as such way , but why are you using \t in your code file ?

#5

I am using tabs for indentation. So, I can modify the code for languages like c++ and c by removing the indention, but for languages like python, I won’t be able to submit them because indention is a necessity in that case. There’s no way around it right?

There are lot of things in selenium , there might be some way to get this task done.
But some suggestions to try will be ,

  1. Try submitting your code using the IDE mode in code-chef . As i guess it works the same way we work in some any other editor.

  2. If you want to work on Non-IDE mode , then what you can try is search or create a script that disables tabs in browser . With this you can submit skip those tabs.

I hope these helps you :slightly_smiling_face:.
