Should we require .ans files for interactive problems? #187

Closed RagnarGrootKoerkamp closed 1 year ago

RagnarGrootKoerkamp commented 3 years ago

Currently problemtools requires them, but they're usually ((almost) always?) not needed for interactive problems.

Should it just work without creating a bunch of empty .ans files?

I believe we with would also need to change it in DOMjudge then.

I believe this can be closed based on discussion here https://github.com/Kattis/problem-package-format/issues/98 Is that correct @RagnarGrootKoerkamp ?

Indeed this can be closed. Conclusion there: yes, .ans files must always exist.
