2. egg-drop challenge

we have a 100 story building and 2 eggs. we want to check what is the highest floor from where we can throw out an egg and it doesn’t break. we want to find this out for sure by attempting the least amount of throws possible

a solution is a function where

parameters:

• a function

  • it takes an integer parameter of the floor number and returns a boolean value of whether the egg breaks or not

returns:

• an integer, the number of the highest floor where the egg doesn’t break

it throws the egg the least amount of times possible, after it breaks the second egg, it does not throw anymore

from jkg_evaluators import eggdrop_100floor_2egg

def my_solution1(breaks):

    for i in range(1,101):
        if breaks(i):
            return i - 1

eggdrop_100floor_2egg.evaluate(my_solution1)

- success rate: 100/101 (99.0%)
- error count: 0
- best performance: 1
- worst performance: 100
- mean performance: 50.99009900990099


 BAD SOLUTION at:
 {'egg_count': 2, 'floor_count': 100, 'max_floor': 100}
