Challenge Overview

The TopCoder Competition Engine is a system used for Single Round Match(SRM) and Marathon Match contests. Currently, the system does not allowed competitor's code to do File I/O operations, due to security consideration. If it is allowed, it is possible to check other competitor's solution or all the test data (including system test).

The current approach for test data passing is to load the test data completely in memory and then passed to competitor's code, but there will be a problem if the test data is very huge.

We are seeking a way that can let competitor's code do file streaming without losing the security consideration.
