TIM: entry exceeds time-limit (90 seconds; tested with n=1000000)
INC: other error, e.g.:
  • "entry 0" or "entry" fails or gives wrong result
  • output is in an incorrect format (not recognized by test suite)
  • overflow error
TIC: entry exceeds time-limit and another error occurs
PEN: error detected during Public Judgement

Public Judgement Results

In the following entries, incorrect behaviour was detected after the release of all entries to the public:

Boreal: Extra output (00h) after CR/LF, can be fixed in this way according to Guillermo Sais:

        ... LINE 78
        INC     BP              ; [FIX, +1 byte]
dn20:   pop     dx
        int     21h
        ;dec    dx              ; [FIX, -1 byte]
        DEC     BP              ; [FIX, +1 byte]
        jns     dn20

fabled: Uses INT 29h for output, which outputs to the console but not to stdout as required by the rules. Smallest fix according to Guillermo Sais:

        ... LINE 63
        db      0bfh
@@wr:   int     21h
        lodsb
        add     al, '0'
        XCHG    DX,AX           ; [FIX, +1 byte]
        MOV     AH,2            ; [FIX, +2 bytes]
        jns     @@wr

Lawrence E. Boothby: Uses ADD CL,AL in parsing, which can be fixed in this way according to Guillermo Sais:

        ... LINE 23
        MOV     AL,[BX+SI-7F]
        CBW                     ; [FIX, +1 byte]
        CWDE                    ; [FIX, +2 bytes]
        ... LINE 30
        STD
        ;DB 66                  ; [FIX, -1 byte]
        XOR     AX,AX

As a penalty, the size of the smallest fix and an extra byte have been added to the sizes of these entries.

shr / molecoola: The original entry.com file gave wrong results when executed with the parameters n=65536, 131072, 196608, ... However, the reason was a bug in the NASM assembler; NASM assembled the instruction JECXZ 127h to 66h E3h 0Fh, while 67h E3h 0Fh would have been correct. The entry compiled fine after being converting to TASM-compatible code, and by using DB 66h JCXZ 127h it was also possible to make NASM generate the correct result. Therefore the entry was accepted without a penalty. In the SHR directory also the fixed versions created by other competitors have been included.
