Creating a Contest on HackerRank is an easy process which is divided in 2 steps.

1. Create a Claiming
2. Create a Contest.

2. Click Manage Challenges Tab or Click = > Manage Challenges

3. Click the green push button "New Challenge" in the top correct department.

##Making a New Challenge

Now nosotros have the challenge creator window.

Which has the following sections

####Challenge Name This is the name that will appear for the challenge.
Enter the challenge proper name, for the challenge you want to create.

####Description A brief intro to the problem statement. Where you briefly define the what the challenge is. HackerRank recommends to write something in this section.

####Problem Argument Here the actual trouble statement is written. Brand sure you write in markdown Markdown Editor
A adept problem argument contains

1. Description of the trouble
2. Any further Clarifications or Notes, that you experience a person may overlook, or wrongly assume. (Optional)
3. Input format
4. Output format
5. Constraints
6. Sample Input
7. Sample Output
8. Explanation of the sample (minimum two)

Click Save One time you finish writing the problem statement. This will enable more configuration options that we'll see now.

##Tips on Markdown syntax:

• Utilise Capital Letters to announce Variable names.
• Use double infinite at the end of line to give line breaks.
• Use **text** for Assuming outcome
• Use _text_ for Italics outcome
• Use Italics for all Variable names and things to highlight.
• Use back ticks (`) for something that has to be exactly printed in output. E.one thousand. Print Yep or NO.
• Use iv spaces before each line in Sample Input and Sample Output. This acts equally a <pre> tag in HTML.
• Use ≤ ≥ for less than equal or greater than equal in constraints.
• Use <sub> and <sup> For subscript and super script. Avoid ^ for super script.
• Don't forget to escape the wild characters *, | , _ etc.

A sample problem statement goes like this

            This is an introductory challenge. The purpose of this challenge is to give you a working I/O template in your preferred language. It includes scanning two integers from `STDIN`, calling a function, returning a value, and press it to `STDOUT`.      Your chore is to scan two numbers from `STDIN`, and print the sum A+B on `STDOUT`.   **Note**: The lawmaking has been saved in a template, which you tin submit if you desire.   **Input Format**   Given _A_ and _B_ on ii different lines.    **Output Format**   An integer that denotes Sum _(A + B)_   **Constraints**   i ≤ _A_, _B_ ≤ g  **Sample Input**      2     3  **Sample Output**      5                      

##Tips on LaTeX syntax

• Latex is available on HackerRank challenge editor and can be used by wrapping the text with $\text{Howdy World!}$ for inline latex and $$\text{Hullo World!}$$ for new line.
• All the general latex tags are applicable, some examples below can be tried on HackerRank editor. You can find whatsoever latex guide on google and it'll work.

            %Determinants   $$   \left| {\brainstorm{array}{cc|c|c}    A_{1,i} & A_{1,ii} & \cdots & A_{1,N}\\\    A_{two,1} & A_{ii,2} & \cdots & A_{ii,N} \\\    \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\\    A_{Chiliad,1} & A_{K,two} & \cdots & A_{M,N} \\\   \terminate{assortment} } \right | $$   % System of Equations  $$\begin{align*} g'(East) &= \sum_{grand=1}^E chiliad\left(\left\lfloor E/yard \right\rfloor\correct) \\\ one thousand'(E) &= \sum_{k=1}^E \sum_{i=1}^{\lfloor Due east/thousand \rfloor} \nabla g(i) \\\ yard'(E) &= \sum_{k\cdot i \le Due east} \nabla g(i) \end{marshal*}$$                      

Configuring a Claiming

###Test Cases
Click the tab exam cases and for each test cases manually fill upwardly input and output fields or upload input/output files for each test case. Give a score to your test instance and salvage.

Or You can create a zip locally containing two folders input and output and having the files named every bit input00.txt , output00.txt and so on. And upload the nil.

Add at least ten-xv test cases to evaluate a trouble.
Make sure you lot write 2-3 very simple(few lines) test cases and tick the sample checkbox ahead of them. These sample cases run when the user clicks Compile and Examination. These accept 0 or very low score compared to other exam cases.

Brand sure the sample examination case given in the argument is added in the testcases and marked every bit sample.

Tip:- Add diverseness of test cases, few very basic and rest of them of tougher difficulty. Use weightage wisely

Click Relieve and motility on to Languages

###Linguistic communication
Here y'all can

• Enable/Disable a linguistic communication.
• Gear up Fourth dimension Limit.
• Set Memory Limit.
• Ready Template

Note If yous are non sure of what you are doing Please do not change the default values.

A quick guide to problem setting will aid here
