“I don't know what HackerRank is, but am I right in assuming your teacher just copy-pasted a problem from a programming website and gave it to your class as homework? xD”

From Wikipedia:

“HackerRank is a technology company that focuses on competitive programming challenges for both consumers and businesses, where developers compete by trying to program according to provided specifications.

[...]

Programmers are then ranked globally on the HackerRank leaderboard and earn badges based on their accomplishments to drive competition among users. ”

So not just a programming website, but a competitive, recruiting-oriented website. How's that for a uni programming lab? xD
