Coding Challenge of the week
-
As something a little different we've launched a coding challenge of the week. A weekly simple programming problem that should take no more than half an hour or so, with the best answer winning a CodeProject T-shirt. The first challenge is up, and it's culled directly from a problem we faced internally: Coding challenge: bad word filter[^] If anyone has any small programming challenges they'd like to submit for the next challenge please send them to me (chris@codeproject.com).
cheers Chris Maunder

I'd just like a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

I almost started a stopwatch to see how long it would take for that comment ;)

How long until someone copies and pastes the question in an attempt to get someone else to do the work for them.

Exactly ! If it works and Chris gets by with it by only giving out a T-Shirt, I think we can name it a good deal.

Easier.
if(str.length() > 0) { str = ""; }
It's impossible filter for every single word that people may find offensive, so you need to get rid of them all. eg. "I like Ds. Big Ds. I like to think long and hard about Ds." Gets past pretty much every word filter there is.
