I can’t solve validator 5 “Only One”. I’ve tried hardcoding “MISSING”, “INDETERMINATE”, and the name of the first cyborg with all elimination logic commented out – all failed. I’m mystified, leaning towards an input reading bug of some kind that’s causing my code to crash or not read the name of the first cyborg at all. Any ideas?

You have to solve a puzzle first to see others solutions.
You only see the solutions for the languages you solved it with.
As for Clash of Code, some users share their solution, some don’t (in general people share them for fast and reverse mode but people tend to hide them more in short mode to avoid giving away all their tricks).

Thanks; just what I needed to know! My code was hanging trying to consume a newline after reading cyborgReportCount.

The result of matches is : {‘MELLOW’: 3, ‘YELLOW’: 2, ‘FELLOW’: 3, ‘BELLOW’: 2, ‘JELLO’: 2, ‘HELLO’: 2, ‘CELLO’: 2}
As you can see, there is more than one matches, so output should be INDETERMINATE due to the definition.
I’m currently developing in Python on Mozzila Firefox, let me know if you have answers for that problem, thanks.
You also have to check for any contradictions.

The whole game is eliminating the wrong answers and seeing what is left.
GROUCHO has the wrong companion and HARPO has the wrong hat, so both are eliminated. Only CHICO is left.
The only information useful to eliminate cyborgs is the catchphrase word DOUBLE. SPEEDO and ERGO are eliminated because they do not have the correct word. But UHOH, TYPO, and OHNO all have the correct word, and we don’t know what DITTO says, so the output is INDETERMINATE.
MELLOW and FELLOW have the wrong catchphrase. YELLOW has the wrong companion. BELLOW and JELLO have the wrong neckwear. HELLO and CELLO have the wrong hat. All known cyborgs have been eliminated.
