Practicing on Codeforces is crucial for improving competitive programming skills, but it lacks some flexibility. Problems don't get official ratings immediately after a contest, making difficulty assessment harder. Additionally, problem tags may give unintended hints, affecting unbiased problem-solving.
To address this, I present CF Problem Insights, a Chrome extension designed to refine your problem-solving experience. It offers estimated problem ratings before official ratings are released and lets you hide/show problem tags individually, ensuring unbiased practice.
Features
Estimated Problem Rating
- Fetches and displays estimated problem ratings from Clist on the problem page below problem tags.
- Helps users gauge problem difficulty before actual ratings are released.
- Allows users to compare estimated ratings with actual ratings once they are available.
Hide/Reveal Tags & Ratings
- Hide problem tags and ratings to avoid biases while practicing.
- Users can click on each tag to reveal or hide it individually.
- Enhances problem-solving by allowing a more self-assessed approach without prior hints.
- Works seamlessly with Codeforces UI, integrating naturally into problem pages.
Sort Tags by User Activity
- Tags are sorted based on the number of problems solved per tag.
- Users will be able to judge how well they can solve a particular type of problem tag at a given rating, helping them focus on areas needing improvement and understand their strength in solving such problems.
Installation
- Click on the link CF Problem Insights, which will redirect you to the Chrome Web Store. Then, click Add to Chrome to install the extension.
