FAQ

How are the leaderboards calculated?

Every quest has multiple test cases (they aren't visible). For every test case, the number of steps (head movements) the Logic Mill performed to solve the test case is counted. Then these numbers are summed up for all test cases and shown you as the total number of steps. The fewer steps you have in total, the higher you are ranked.

Let's say you're solving the „Unary Addition“ quest. Your solution would be be tested against many test cases independently. For example: |||+||, ||||+|, ||||+||||. So if the 1st test case is solved in 10 steps, the 2nd in 15 steps, and the 3rd in 20 steps, your total number of steps would be 45.

Then you can also compete on the efficiency of your solution. The fewer transitions rules your solution has, the higher you are ranked on that metric. That way people can compete both on the speed (fewer steps) and the efficiency (fewer rules) of their solutions.

The Global Leaderboard is aggregation of all quest leaderboards.
