VS Code Config
Newly Added Support for RUST
Rust :
Intro
This repository contains some configuration files for Visual Studio Code that will give you a better experience while practicing competitive programming in a sense of easy input & output.
Back Story
Generally we used to use Code Blocks for practicing competitive programming back then (2018).
It has everything build in there. You just need to create the .cpp or .c file and run the code by pressing the run button. Then the terminal came up and you put the inputs and get the outputs in the terminal there.
You might be a good coder but I had to run and test my code multiple times to get the correct output. Also I was not a fan of codeblocks as it looks very odd. And at the same time, VS Code also crosses my way. Then I started using it and I found it very useful. But the problem was, I had to run the code in terminal and give inputs and get outputs. So I thought of making a configuration file that will make my life easier. And here it is.
How It Works
VS Code has their way of doing things. It has concept of workspace and tasks.You can open a folder as workspace and do your stuffs. You can also configure the workspace according to your need. There is a .vscode folder in the workspace folder where you can put your configuration files. settings.json is the settings for your current workspace and another important file is tasks.json file which can be configured to build & run your code with some shortcuts. We have used this tasks.json file to make our life easier.
Basically we can set the commands that will run when the shortcut is being used. So, the config file includes building, running the code and then taking input from a file and giving output to another file. Then you just need to write your code, give inputs in the input file and press the shortcut. You will get the output in the output file.
Note: The README files are written for C/C++ only. You can follow the same steps for other languages too.
Available Language Config Files
How To Use
-
Open your workspace Folder where you will code your shit.
- Open VS Code window
- Then you can go to
Menu -> File -> Open Folder ...
-
Create your .c or .cpp file,
-
Write code and give inputs in input.txt file
-
Press Ctrl+Shift+b and your output will be in the output.txt file.
Notes
- Make sure your mouse cursor is clicked or focused on the cpp file editor while you are pressing the shortcuts
- I have came to know that some new comers or vscode users sometimes just open the file in vscode instead of opening as folder and press
Ctrl+Shift+b which will not work. So please open vscode in your desired folder.
Happy coding :3 (Extra cheese?)
