My 2018 Mercer Solutions/Data
Mercer hasn't posted the data for this contest, but one of our coaches
had a copy of what were likely the test files used in the contest.
I have uploaded these here so students have some test files.
Two problems (9, 12) had bad data during the contest, so I am just
posting solutions and data for the other 10 problems. Almost all 10 of these
data files were the exact ones in the contest. I only edited prob10.in
because the input in the contest didn't always put a * sign between
a coefficient and its x term and I felt that based on the write up
it was safe to assume that * was there so long as the coefficient
wasn't an unwritten 1 or -1.
Here is the problem set.
