We had a C team, a Java team and a Python team, four people each. The Java and C people knew their language, the Python team just started learning it. The C team ended up getting totally lost and failed. The Java team got most things working ok and passed. The Python team got everything working, but additionally implemented a web interface for the simulator that monitored and visualised its current state. They said it helped them with debugging. > What language was the web page hosted in? It comes up completely blank > for me. :) Yep, same here. Hidden behind a flash wall, it seems. Stefan
