cpdojo's blog

By cpdojo, history, 21 month(s) ago, In English

Hi Codeforces community, I have created a tool for helping out CF community — CPDojo.

This tool can be used for monitoring ourselves and also to filter problems.

Some of the features added as of now are:

  1. Problems filtering based on number of solves, problems tags and ratings. Like if you need problems which are solved by atleast X people and utmost Y people, then you can filter problems that way.

  2. You can also view how much problems you have solved between 2 time periods based on the problem ratings. This will help us to track exactly how many problems we solved during past 3 months and then we can make decisions based on that analytics.

  3. You can also view how many problems of particular type you have solved, which will eventually contribute to your progress tracking.

Sample screenshot:

I am planning to add additional functionalities too in future... If you have some interesting suggestions please do let me know :). Also let me know if you have any improvements that can add more value to the tool. Thank you !

Note : I am working on mobile UI currently. It is under development, so it is not recommended to view it in mobile. Thank you for your patience.

--------------------------------- New minor updates -------------------------------------------

Added Direction texts to show some functionalities on the platform

------------------------------------------------- New update -----------------------------------------------------------------

-- Added provision to exclude problem types (get all problems having type as graph but it should not contain tree problems).

-- Added a table to see all attempted problems which are not solved.

-- At the chart displaying number of problems solved in time range (based on ratings), at it's legend user will be able to see the total number of problems solved within a given time range.

------------------------------------------------- New update -----------------------------------------------------------------

-- Added Problem Recommendation system. This allows a user to particularly train for reaching their next rating group milestone. (i.e from Specialist to Expert)

-- Added complete change in CPDojo UI.

Thanks, it is very helpful. Below are my suggestions if reasonable.

When filter problems, 1. Can we exclude Tag also? ( like include graph and exclude tree) 2. Can we add more fancy functionality to combine AND, OR, EXCLUDE among tags?

User details: 1. Can we add total number accepted for time range, (just seeing details on problem distribution.) 2. Can we add problems attempted but not unsolved?

    Hi Cheesma, thank you for your valuable feedback.

    When filter problems, 1. Can we exclude Tag also? ( like include graph and exclude tree) 2. Can we add more fancy functionality to combine AND, OR, EXCLUDE among tags? ---> I'll start working on this, mostly I'll be adding a feature to also exclude problem tags as you have mentioned in this comment. Thank you for pointing this out.

    User details: 1. Can we add total number accepted for time range, (just seeing details on problem distribution.) 2. Can we add problems attempted but not unsolved? ---> For this one, can you please elaborate it a bit more... because the first chart is currently displaying the number of accepted problems only, but, it doesn't count any problem twice (i.e we are taking only the first solve for a particular problem). Please help me to understand your comment regarding user details :). Thank you !

Here is an important feature you can add:

  • Virtual contest selection: A list of users will be provided. Filter contests where all the problems are unattempted by everyone.

Also, consider customizing the parameter "items per page" in the problems section.

Deployment complete.... changes are live now

---- New updates 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Added sorting on columns — ratings and number of solves --> Tap on table header for that column and it will be sorted. For now supporting only ascending sorting of ratings column and descending sorting for number of solves column.

When you sort ratings column, problems will be sorted first by ratings (in asc order) and then tie is broken by sorting number of solves (in desc order)

When you sort number of solves column, problems will be sorted first by number of solves(in desc order) and then tie is broken by sorting ratings (in asc order)

---- New updates 2 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Added a checkbox (must include selected tags) to ensure that the problems which you get will have all tags which you have selected. This is helpful in case you need to get problems having dp and trees both together (for topic like dp on trees).

UPDATE: forgot to build the backend before deploying... now all features will be working :)

    Hi, cpdojo, Thanks you for above live features which now I use everyday. The following request maybe a very interesting feature to be added. It will be very helpful for my training.

    PROBLEM FILTERS: my request is just to add start/end time periods as inputs (the default is All Time, same as without this feature), so that I can filter out exactly what problems a CFer have solved during this specific period. of course, the current filter/sort feature can help to filter/sort their solved problems by tags/difficulty at your need.

    Example Interesting use case

    1. one of my friend jumps from Pupil to Master using only 9 Months, his training method is to just solve constructive problems. So this new feature can help filter out exactly what constructive problems he solved during this period when he improved dramatically. https://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/66715?#comment-507869

    2. some CF ID have very interesting rating graphs, where in a short time, their rating improve dramatically, so it will be very interesting to know what problems(specific to tags/difficulty) they solved during these short period, so you can sort those problems and start to solve these problems(specific to tags/difficulty). for example, this CFer has become grandmaster just in 2 years. It may be interesting to pick up problems in the period when he improves fast and you can start sort by difficulty and solve them. https://mirror.codeforces.com/profile/BucketPotato

        Hi cpdojo, Thanks for the reply. I checked User’s solves tab, it lists solved problems and difficulty. But I can not filter by tag or sort by difficulty as I do in the PROBLEM FILTER section.

        Is it possible to just add time period inputs in problems filter section, so that the existing filter/sort function can be leveraged?

        Cheers:).

          Hi chessma, both problem filter and user details section use different data sources. Also, Problem filter finds all problems irrespective of user/handle, i.e all problems that fit in filtering criteria (ofc limited by number of records). So I thought it would be inappropriate to add it in problem filter section.

          But I can see that filtering is needed for user's solves tab too... So yeah I will think of some way to add it to UI.

          Thank you for your valuable feedback :)

Hi CF community, I've added a functionality to search for problem statement based on certain specific keywords. Here we have actually prioritized match of problem statements with querying keywords, so it won't be sorted by rating, but is sorted on the basis of best match.

You can check it out from search button on the left nav-bar ! Cheers :)

            It can't be done so easily though...

            For now I am mainly focusing on some AI/ML things to add to the product to help CPers to rank up in much better way...

            I've noted this requirement though... will implement it in near future ! :)

Hi Cpdojo, for problem filter session, could you enable sort by problem ID (PID)? since I want to practice most recently problem per rating.

I think it will not cost you 10 mins. thx

Hi cpdojo,

I using the Problem recommender from quite some time; it is an excellent tool and recommending excellent problems, but here you can add a feature to show the difference of problems solved and remaining to solve. As we keep on solving, it gets difficult to classify problems which are solved and which need to be solved.

I hope this will help a lot of other users too.

Thank you.

        This problem is happening when a problem doesn't have it's rating updated. That's why newer problems were not visible because of no rating assigned to it.

        We are looking into this problem and make changes accordingly! Thank you for your patience :).
