Bringing on the Pain

Here we go, judging for the CS 11 Programming Competition. Since they had only started on arrays, the single problem they will work on is the Base Manual Calculator. This may seem harsh, but I don't think anyone can be fully expected to solve th problem completely: this is to gauge how far they can go. If anyone solves addition completely, I'd be fully impressed.

So far, there had been two UPS givings-up, and no submissions, and it's down to the last thirty minutes, so there's not really a lot to say yet.

11:40 AM (11 minutes left): Nothing still. Just uploaded my solution from last semester to geocities. May move it to my usual account, if ever, later.
