DO NOT COMMIT SOLUTIONS, BE SURE TO PUT ANSWERS IN contracts/contracts_optimized to ensure they fall into the .gitignore

Players

Your goal is to optimize the contracts such that they reach the target efficiency.

Rules

• you may not change the optimizer level
• you may not change the solidity version
• you may refactor functionality as long as you don't break the business logic
• you may make reasonable assumptions about what variable sizes are necessary to get things done
• you may remove unnecessary or redunant logic (some have been intentionally added)
• because making functions payable is a controversial optimization, you do not need to make functions payable to reach the gas target unless the function needs to be payable to fulfill its business logic

Testing

As mentioned above, optimized contracts should be created in their own sub-folder to prevent commiting them publicly.

The file structure should look similar to this:

- GasPuzzles
  |_
    contracts
    |_
      contracts_optimized
    | |_
    |   ArraySum.sol
    |   Distribute.sol
    |   ..
    |   ...
    |
    ArraySum.sol
    Distribute.sol
    ..
    ...

Within the contracts that are optimized be sure to follow the following naming convention to ensure tests run smoothly:

contract OptimizedArraySum {

...

contract OptimizedDistribute {

...
