What determines the difficulty of the challenges?

Question

If feels like I can do a super easy challenge and get 4 or 5 correct answers and then the next one will be hard and I only get 1, 2 and sometimes 0 correct answers. I was just wondering if there was something that decides on the difficulty?

Answer 1

I just started a couple of weeks ago with HTML challenges and at least for me it looks like that the questions are selected randomly. experts and noobies get the same questions... 😎

Answer 2

The XPs you can gain during a challenge depends on the XPs of your opponent. If your opponent is better than you, you can win a lot but lose a little. If you opponent is worse than you can win a little but lose a lot. "better" is understood as in more XPs for the specific weapon, not necessarily as in a more skilled coder... 🤓😎

Answer 3

I don't know the logic of question selection, but I can only assume that it depends on your opponents exp in selected programming language

Answer 4

ah that makes sense, i’m going to try test that theory

Answer 5

oohhhhh. thanks!

Answer 6

i’ve also noticed that the xp changes on nearly every challenge i do. does that maybe suggest dificulty?

Answer 7

Most challenge are random and most can be passed because number of questions are limited right now but taking a lot of challenges makes it more known
