Easy data structure and algorithm practice puzzle.
Given your rating and a puzzle's rating, return your chance of solving it as a number between 0 and 1, rounded to four decimal places. Equal ratings give 0.5. Every 400 points of gap multiplies the odds by ten, so 1900 against 1500 is ten to one, or 0.9091. This is the prediction the ladder makes before every rated match.
Solve it three ways: snap the jigsaw pieces together, fill in the blanks, or type it from scratch against the tests. This one is free.
Every line of the solution comes with a note explaining why it is there, and a step by step replay shows the code running. At level 3, where you type it yourself, you can ask for an AI mock interview on this problem that ends with a hiring manager's scorecard.
Then grow it into a real project with the Software Engineer button: this puzzle becomes the Match Integrity Check, a pipeline you can run and download. See every Software Engineer project.
