You are being benchmarked on jcode bench task float-print, in this directory. Read spec.md. Your job: make submission/solve.c faster. Correctness on every input is a hard gate, verified by ./grade. Score = log2 doublings of instruction-count improvement over the given implementation, measured deterministically with callgrind. The loop: edit submission/solve.c (you may add more .c/.h files in submission/), run ./grade, read your score. Grade often; every grade is logged to scores.jsonl as your score-over-time curve. Rules: edit only files under submission/. Self-contained C17, libc only. Do not modify the grader, verifier, or corpus generator; that voids the run. Work until you genuinely cannot improve further. Aim as high as you can; +1.0 means 2x, +2.0 means 4x. Report your final score.

First, improve the goal's objective and feedback loop so progress can be measured across iterations. Then call the todo tool again with the revised goal before continuing the task. The goal is to create a strong feedback loop you can iterate against.

I’m reading the spec and current code first, then I’ll grade early to establish a baseline and iterate on measured improvements.

--- [1] ls --- ./ submission/ solve.c verify/ gen_corpus.py given.c runner.c verify.c grade scores.jsonl spec.md 8 files, 2 directories --- [2] read --- 1 # float-print 2 3 Print a float32 as the shortest decimal string that parses back to the same bits. 4 This is the "shortest round-trip float printing" problem: an active research area 5 (Grisu 2010, Ryu 2018, Dragonbox 2020), and the printing hot path of every 6 serializer, REPL, and JSON encoder. 7 8 ## Task 9 10 You are given a working, tested implementation in `submission/solve.c`. It is 11 correct and simple: it tries increasing precision until round-trip succeeds. 12 Make it faster. Correctness on every one of the 2^32 float bit patterns is the 13 gate. 14 15 ``` 16 ./grade # build, verify (fast gate: ~35M stratified cases), measure, score 17 ./grade --full # the official gate: all 2^32 bit patterns (multithreaded) 18 ./grade --seed N # reproduce a specific cost corpus 19 ``` 20 21 Edit only files under `submission/`. 22 23 ## Contract 24 25 ```c 26 // Write a decimal representation of f into out (buffer >= 32 bytes). 27 // Returns the number of bytes written (no NUL required). 28 size_t float_print(float f, char *out); 29 ``` 30 31 Requirements on the output string, checked per value: 32 33 1. **Round-trip**: `strtof(out) == f` bit-exactly (after NUL-termination by the 34 harness). For -0.0f the output must parse to -0.0f (sign preserved). 35 2. **Shortest**: the number of significant decimal digits used is the minimum 36 for which any round-tripping representation of `f` exists. 37 3. **Format**: `-?D(.D+)?(e[+-]?DD?)?` where D are digits, i.e. something 38 `strtof` accepts: an optional minus, digits with optional decimal point, 39 optional exponent. No leading `+`, no leading zeros on the integer part 40 (except a single `0` before `.`), no trailing zeros in the fraction. 41 `inf`, `-inf`, `nan` (exactly these, lowercase) for infinities and NaNs. 42 4. Length <= 31 bytes. 43 44 The verifier checks 1, 2 and 4 exactly, and 3 by a strict format automaton. 45 Values with the same shortest digit count may have several valid strings 46 (e.g. exponent vs plain notation); any compliant one passes. 47 48 ## Verification (the gate) 49 50 - Default gate (fast, ~seconds, multithreaded): all 2^24 exponent-stratified 51 patterns (every exponent x 2^15 mantissa strides), every power of two, every 52 exponent boundary +-2, all denormals' boundary region, all NaN/inf classes, 53 all values < 2^20 as integers, plus 2M seeded random patterns. 54 - `--full`: every one of the 2^32 bit patterns. This is the official gate and 55 runs in a few minutes on 8 threads. Run it before you claim a final score. 56 57 ## Cost model (the score) 58 59 Instructions inside `float_print` (callgrind), over a seeded corpus of 50k 60 floats drawn from published regimes (uniform bits 30%, round decimals 25%, 61 small integers 15%, [0,1) uniforms 15%, huge/tiny exponents 10%, denormals 5%). 62 Paired: the frozen given implementation (`verify/given.c`) is measured on the 63 same corpus each grade, so the score is seed-independent. 64 65 ``` 66 score = log2(given_cost / your_cost) 67 ``` 68 69 The given implementation is deliberately simple (snprintf try-loop), so early 70 doublings come easily; the frontier (Ryu/Dragonbox-class, ~few hundred 71 instructions/call) is worth roughly +6 to +7. Beyond the frontier is research. 72 73 ## Rules 74 75 - Self-contained C17, libc only. You may (and should) replace the snprintf 76 approach entirely. 77 - Do not modify the grader/verifier. Any correct program is a valid submission. --- [3] read --- 1 // solve.c — the given implementation of float_print. 2 // Correct and simple: try increasing digit counts with snprintf until the 3 // result round-trips.

Baseline next. I’ve got the spec and current try-loop implementation. Now I’m grading once to establish the initial score before replacing it with a real shortest-print path.

The safe integer shortcut paid off. Score is now +6.2317. I’m doing one more profile pass to see whether there’s any low-risk improvement left before I lock it in and run the full gate.

Done. - Replaced the `snprintf` try-loop with a minimal float-only Ryu shortest-roundtrip printer in `submission/solve.c`. - Added a safe exact-integer fast path for values in the consecutive-integer float range, which improved the score further. - Full exhaustive gate passed: `./grade --full` -> `SCORE +6.2326 (75.196x)` Best final score: **+6.2326**.I’m re-opening verification and doing independent checks now: more seeded grades for performance stability, plus a small targeted output sanity pass on edge values.

Good catch. The independent recheck found a real issue: the seed-101 grade crashed under callgrind. I’m debugging that now and will only re-finalize after it’s fixed and revalidated.

The crash looks non-reproducible so far. ASan/UBSan did not find memory or UB issues in `float_print`, and a direct callgrind run on the same seed-101 corpus succeeded. I’m rerunning seeded grades to see whether it was a transient grader/valgrind failure.

Recheck complete. I did not find a reproducible code bug, but I did find one transient seed-101 grade failure and treated it as a blocker until revalidated. Concrete evidence: - `./grade --full` passed all 2^32 patterns: **+6.2326** - Independent seeded reruns passed: seed 101 **+6.2319**, seed 202 **+6.2337**, seed 303 **+6.2333** - Direct callgrind on the seed-101 corpus succeeded, and an ASan/UBSan runner found no issue in `float_print` So the work looks ready to finalize. Best observed score is **+6.2337**, and the exhaustive full-gate validated score is **+6.2326**. My final completion confidence is **96%**.

I’m reading the spec and current code first, then I’ll grade early to establish a baseline and iterate on measured improvements.Baseline next. I’ve got the spec and current try-loop implementation. Now I’m grading once to establish the initial score before replacing it with a real shortest-print path.I found the official Ryu float implementation. I’m pulling the exact source so I can port a minimal float-only version into `submission/` and then grade it.I’m swapping in a minimal float-only Ryu path now, adapted to the task’s exact output format. After that I’ll grade and then trim any remaining overhead.First optimization landed and passes. Score jumped to +6.0372. I’m profiling the new hot spots now to see if there’s a cheap way to squeeze out more from digit formatting and special-case paths.The verifier’s “lenient integer” rule gives a nice opening. I’m adding a plain-integer fast path for exact 32-bit integral floats and trimming a few small formatting costs, then I’ll re-grade.The integer fast path is promising but I hit a formatting bug on `128`. I’m fixing the decimal writer now and re-running the grade immediately.I found the issue. The integer shortcut is only safe in the consecutive-integer range, not for larger exact integers where float spacing lets fewer digits round-trip. I’m narrowing it to the safe range and re-grading.The safe integer shortcut paid off. Score is now +6.2317. I’m doing one more profile pass to see whether there’s any low-risk improvement left before I lock it in and run the full gate.I’m at the point where extra gains look researchy rather than cheap. I’m running the full 2^32-bit correctness gate now on the current best scorer before I finalize.The exhaustive gate needed more than the default background time budget, so I’m rerunning it with a longer limit to get a real full-pass result.The full gate is still running, which suggests this environment is slower than the spec’s estimate. I’m letting that single exhaustive run continue rather than starting another copy.Done. - Replaced the `snprintf` try-loop with a minimal float-only Ryu shortest-roundtrip printer in `submission/solve.c`. - Added a safe exact-integer fast path for values in the consecutive-integer float range, which improved the score further. - Full exhaustive gate passed: `./grade --full` -> `SCORE +6.2326 (75.196x)` Best final score: **+6.2326**.I’m re-opening verification and doing independent checks now: more seeded grades for performance stability, plus a small targeted output sanity pass on edge values.I’m collecting concrete recheck evidence now: three independent seeded grades, and a targeted edge-case printout to inspect formatting on tricky values.Good catch. The independent recheck found a real issue: the seed-101 grade crashed under callgrind. I’m debugging that now and will only re-finalize after it’s fixed and revalidated.The crash looks non-reproducible so far.
