Improving Codeforces
By PeterNaut, 12 years ago, In English

A happy world in which after each Codeforces contest, editorials are immediately published for all problems in both Russian and English. :)

It's hard to think of a better improvement than that one.

Yes, there's a better improvement: To be able to see full input data when you get WA.

It's kind of hard to debug your code if you don't even know where the error is.

    I don't think very large input data is useful in debuging,so it doesn't matter hiding large datas.Small datas is fully displayed.

Immediately published.. no. what Codeforces do now is best.. actually this gives me some more time to ponder over my solution and 8 out of 10 times, i get the right concept and rectify my mistakes did in contest. and this motivates me for future contests :). hope you have same feeling too !!

In my view, codeforces should maintain a ranking of number of submissions per week or number of submissions per month, because some people have accounts on codeforces without a submission for more than a month !
