Hello CodinGame!

In your FAQ you mention, that we have Python 3.11.5, NumPy 1.20.2 and SciPy 1.6.3
The world is moving fast and we currently have Python 3.13.5, Numpy 2.3.2, Scipy 1.16.1

Would it be possible to update some (or all) of these packages?

FYI, the process of upgrading packages on CG faces serious obstacles due to the platform’s legacy architecture, so I think it would be tiring for admins to move at the speed of the world and break things all the time.

As far as I know, the FAQ section may contain outdated information. The current version numbers can be seen in the debug output by running the following code snippet anywhere on CG:

import sys
import scipy
import numpy as np

# Debug print
def print_dbg(*args, **kwargs):
    print(*args, **kwargs, file=sys.stderr, flush=True)

print_dbg(f"Python: {sys.version}")  # Python: 3.11.5 (main, Aug 29 2023, 15:31:31) [GCC 13.2.0]
print_dbg(f"Numpy: {np.__version__}")  # Numpy: 1.23.2
print_dbg(f"Scipy: {scipy.__version__}")  # Scipy: 1.9.3

On the other hand, the current version of Python used on tech.io (with a more modern architecture that makes the upgrade process less complex) is 3.13.5, but Numpy and Scipy libraries are not available. :man_shrugging:
