So are there any indications about what should be used as the answer? I've decrypted the text, but none of my seemingly logical answers have been accepted.

I am looking for a way in c or c++, cause I coded my bot iin c++. I have never programmed sth. like this before, so is there anyone who can help me? If you're using C/C++ for this then you probably want to check out the Curl library . Unfortunately I haven't used it myself so I can do little more t...

Like the text in the challenge says the pixels represent a series of bytes. So try converting the pixels to bytes and see if you can find a meaning for them.

It means the sum of the items starting at the 10th and ending at the 17th, including the 10th and 17th items.
So if you have the following sequence:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20
Then the sum of the 10th through 17th (inclusive) would be 108.

Still no idea what I was doing wrong but running my solver on my home PC after having converted it to Python 3.2 it's working fine. Just a few more levels and I can retire it so I doubt I'll go back and figure out what was wrong now.

I haven't changed my solver since level 242 so it's already done all the smaller fields, or do you mean I should try partitioning the current level? I've set it going again from level 0 and it's solving them all without issue, so I'm even more confused as to what's wrong.

What would this error message signify?
not right dest 3 1, (36, 33)
My solution isn't going from 3,1 to 36,33 so I'm mightily confused.

My solution: 0<1<01>00>12^>00^<91+*g11^>1+96+cd0^<vp It fills the memory from location 0 to number 0 with 1s and then reads the memory location of number 1. Like others it'll only work if the numbers are less than the number of memory locations and probably due to the cycle limit and my sloppy codin...

Brokener Keys

I've hit a wall on this one, I just can't see a way to do this without resorting to a divide and I can't see anyway to simulate a divide without comparisons. Anyone care to give me a even a vague hint as to the direction I should be wandering in?
