I have implemented a sieve of eratosthenes code with O(N) time complexity. I am getting a SIGABRT error.
terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘std::bad_alloc’
what(): std::bad_alloc

1.What is a SIGABRT error?

  1. What is the error made here?

  2. Suggest resources for learning C++ for Competitive coding. I know C and Java.

    #include <bits/stdc++.h>
    using namespace std;

     const long long MAX_SIZE = 1000000001;
 
 vector <long long >prime;
 vector <long long>isprime(MAX_SIZE,true);
 vector<long long>SPF(MAX_SIZE);
 void seive(int n){
     isprime[0]=false;
     isprime[1]=false;
     for(long i=2;i<n;i++){
         if(isprime[i]){
             prime.push_back(i);
             SPF[i]=i;
         }
         for(long j=0;i*prime[j]<n && j<(int)prime.size() && prime[j]<=SPF[i];j++){
             isprime[i*prime[j]]=false;
             SPF[i*prime[j]]=prime[j];
         }
         
     }
 }
 int main() {
     int t;
     scanf("%d",&t);
     seive(10000000);
     for(int i=0;i<prime.size();i++)
     printf("%d\n",prime[i]);
     return 0;
 }

Thank You

Wrong Editorial link
Hey @vijju123, @admin,
The editorial link for the problem BWCELL, CodeChef: Practical coding for everyone and BWCELL Problem - CodeChef is wrong. It should be BWCELL - Editorial - editorial - CodeChef Discuss .

@vijju123 please help

I have recently signed up on codechef(1 week around) and I have secured 4th rank in Schools in India.But unfortunately, my school is not listed on Codechef so I want to know that if I am eligible for laddus of this contest or not.

I would also request @admin to add my school to list asap and I am all ready to help them in this regard.

Here is the link to my school official website.

In the December Lunchtime yesterday, I looked in the ranklist after solving two problems and to my surprise I was ranked 11’th overall with 200 points. (I saved a screenshot! haha).

Then a few minutes later I looked at the ranklist again and my rank was down to 100, but there were now many more people ranked higher than me who also had only 200 points.

Was this a glitch or some kind of timing issue? The contest said “IOI Scoring rules” which said ties were broken by shortest time to reaching a particular score. So if at one time I had rank 11 with score 200, how could I later be ranked lower than people who also got 200? Thanks for any explanation.

Outdated Link

Hey @vijju123, @admin,

Although it is not a big issue, but still posting.:slight_smile:
The link (when clicked on ?), wmd-editor.com on the upper-right corner of the editor is outdated, it takes to a Japanese Health Website.

A bit confused of what a humongous subsequence exactly is.Like if we take ‘10010’ then is {1,3} also a humongous subsequence, and how is {1,5} a humongous subsequence.
For ‘10010’ humongous subsequences should be {1,2},{4,5}, but these aren’t the only ones, {1,5},{1,3} also, and what about {1,2,4,5} and {1,3,4,5}???

For the RECTANGL problem out of JAN18, am I missing something? It seems as easy as checking if two unique pairs of identical numbers exist. This works in the code/compile/run with the given (and my own) test input. Am I looking at it too simple/is there an edge case?
