So, it's the same answer as every other time I've tried to talk to people supporting AI...
If it didn't work, I just I didn't guide it enough, and if I did guide it, it's a skill issue...
It is pretty hard to come up with an easier problem for it to solve for an example case
Mine worked fine. I didn’t use your prompt cut and paste though. It was inefficient on the first prompt, but it worked, and by the third it was pretty speedy. I used codex 5.5, which imo is better than Claude for the time being.
Claude 4.6 was doing shit like
extern char grid[5][5]...
fgets(grid[i], 6, fp); grid[i][6] = '\0';Yeah codex does some stuff where I’m pretty disappointed. It never really gets me 100% to where I need to be without human interaction. But I’m aware it won’t (probably ever) do that and I’m fine with it. It got me 70% there, while I play with my cat… and charge for it. 🤷♂️
