bot-capchase

What it does

Our project is a bot designed to play the game at sqlillo.com. We have 2 different strategies.

How we built it

We used the example given at the web and, after learning how rhai works, we have implemented our own strategies using rhai syntax.

Challenges we ran into

• Understanding the statement, as it required to experiment a lot with the newly-leared language.
• Apprehend the inctricacies of rhai.
• Compiling the program, as new versions were released eventually and they didn't work right away.
• Keeping up with the changes and modifications posted by the organizers on Slack, as the strategies and rules have shifted throughout the HackUPC, thanks to user feedback.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Compiling our program.
• Developing a complex program adapting to a premade template.
• Learning the basics of a new programming language in a very limited amout of time.

What we learned

• A new programming language: rhai.
• A new code editor: Visual Studio Code, as Atom, the one we had been using, didn't highlighted the syntax for rhai.
• New capabilities of control version system GitHub.
• To program for 36 hours sleeping only 3.
• Programming with others in order to develop a complex project.

What's next for bot-capchase

• Beat all other bots (hopefully).
