IMPORTANT

The project was moved (and rewritten in Go) to:

https://github.com/ChrisVilches/cpdiff

------

Install using (globally since it's a CLI application):

``bash
npm install -g cpdiff
`

Compare your program's output to the accepted answer:

`bash
./your_program < data.in | cpdiff data.out
`





About

This is a simple utility for comparing the output of your program to the accepted answer or sample output. The name stands for competitive programming difference.

This program was developed because programs like sdiff or diff completely deform the layout when there are too many differences. This tool is meant to be specific for competitive programming.

Usage

Compare two files:

`bash
cpdiff file1 file2
`

Specify only one file, but pass the output of some other program as input (stdin).

`bash
some_program | cpdiff file1
`

Use - (dash) to specify which side of the comparison should receive input from stdin.

`bash
cpdiff - file1


or


cpdiff file1 -
`

Try my C++ runner. I use this program to quickly run C++ files as if they were scripts, using the simple c++ my_program.cpp` command.
