🧠 AI Usage

I checked the code, wrote parts of it, and worked on logic, flow, and documentation. AI tools helped speed things up and gave useful suggestions along the way.

Vibe Coding

Tools: VSCode - Github Copilot
Models: Claude Sonnet 4
Helped with code completion, logic refinement, and some quick snippets.

Brainstorm

Tools: ChatGPT (Website)
Models: GPT-4o
Used for exploring ideas, clarifying concepts, and writing draft docs.

🎯 Core Design Principles

1. Configuration-Driven Evaluation 📝

Zero Code Modification: The evaluation harness never needs changes
Pure Function Interface: User functions operate on parameters without global state
JSON Configuration: Test cases defined through structured configuration files
Flexible Parameters: Support for arbitrary function signatures and types

2. Microservice Architecture 🔧

Stateless Execution: Each evaluation runs in isolation
Container Lifecycle: Create → Execute → Destroy pattern
Resource Management: CPU, memory, and time limits enforced
Scalable Design: Horizontal scaling through container orchestration

3. Multi-Language Support 💻

C Language: GCC with cJSON library support (C99, C11, C23)
C++ Language: G++ with modern standards (C++11, C++17, C++20, C++23)
Python Language: Multiple Python versions (3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13)
Template Support: Generic functions and type deduction
No Compilation for Python: Direct execution for interpreted languages
Extensible Framework: Easy addition of new language containers

4. Comprehensive Error Detection 🛡️

Compilation Errors: Automatic detection of syntax and type errors
Runtime Errors: Segmentation faults, exceptions, and crashes
Logic Errors: Output validation against expected results
Resource Monitoring: CPU time, memory usage, and execution metrics

🛠️ System Requirements

Operating System: Linux (Ubuntu/Debian recommended)
Container Runtime: Docker Engine 20.10+
Python: 3.8+ for SDK usage
Network: Internet access for Docker image pulls

💡 Usage Examples

Python SDK - Basic Example

from judge_micro.services.efficient import JudgeMicroservice

# Initialize the service
judge = JudgeMicroservice()

# C/C++ example
user_code = '''
int solve(int *a, int *b) {
    *a = *a + *b;
    return 0;
}
'''

config = {
    "solve_params": [
        {"name": "a", "type": "int", "input_value": 5},
        {"name": "b", "type": "int", "input_value": 3}
    ],
    "expected": {"a": 8, "b": 3},
    "function_type": "int"
}

result = judge.run_microservice('c', user_code, config)

if result['status'] == 'SUCCESS':
    print(f"✅ Test passed! Result: {result['actual']}")
    print(f"⏱️ Execution time: {result['metrics']['test_execution_time']:.3f}s")

Python SDK - Python Language Example

# Python code example
python_code = '''
def solve(numbers: list, multiplier: int) -> tuple:
    result = [x * multiplier for x in numbers]
    return (result, multiplier, result)
'''

python_config = {
    "solve_params": [
        {"name": "numbers", "type": "list", "input_value": [1, 2, 3, 4]},
        {"name": "multiplier", "type": "int", "input_value": 2}

result = judge.run_microservice('python', python_code, python_config)

# Test with specific Python version
result = judge.run_microservice('python-3.11', python_code, python_config)

Python SDK - Optimized Batch Testing

# Test same code with multiple configurations efficiently
user_code = '''
int solve(int *n, int *result) {
    if (*n <= 1) {
        *result = 1;
    } else {
        *result = 1;
        for (int i = 2; i <= *n; i++) {
            *result *= i;
        }
    }
    return 0;
}
'''

    return 0;
}

Expected format: {"input": 5, "result": 25}

# Python functions return tuple with all values
def solve(input_val: int, result: int) -> tuple:
    calculated = input_val * input_val
    return (input_val, calculated, calculated)

Expected format: {"input_val": 5, "result": 25, "return_value": 25}
