Welcome to the C1 Terminal Starter Kit! The repository contains a collection of scripts and language-specific starter algos, to help you start your journey to develop the ultimate algo.
For more details about competitions and the game itself please check out our main site.
We recommend you familiarize yourself with the game and its strategic elements, by playing manually, before you start your algo. Check out the playground.
To run your game locally, you must install the Java Development Kit 10 or above, as well as the toolchain for the algo language you will be using.
If you are running Windows, you will need Window PowerShell installed. This comes pre-installed on Windows 10. Some windows users might need to run the following PowerShell commands in adminstrator mode (right-click the PowerShell icon, and click "run as administrator"):
`Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted`
If this doesn't work try this:
`Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted CurrentUser`
If that still doesn't work, try this:
`Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass`
And don't forget to run the PowerShell as admin.
Python algos require Python 3 to run. If you are running Unix (Mac OS or Linux), the command python3 must run on
Bash or Terminal. If you are running Windows, the command py -3 must run on PowerShell.
Java algos require the Java Development Kit, as does all local development. Java algos also require [Gradle] (https://gradle.org/install/) for compilation.
To run your algo locally or on our servers, or to enroll your algo in a competition, please see the documentation for the Terminal command line interface in the scripts directory
