Do post a link to the question you have a query about.
Also posting a link to your submitted code is always better than pasting your code here and expecting someone to help :slight_smile:

Have a look at this.

  1. You are missing out the case where you already have m = n and you have to do nothing with your k coins.
  2. Also, by applying while loop in your code, you are exhausting all your coins. But that is not necessary. You always want to save the money you have right?

The input provided by the site are known as ‘Sample Test Cases’. Your program will run against each test case of the problem the system contains. If it passes all of them, you will get an AC, if it fails on any one, you will get a WA or any other verdict.
Hope this helps :slight_smile:

Consider the input 5 5 3, m and n are already equal so you need not spend any coins and the output should be 0.
But your code produces 1 as output. This is just one such example where your code fails. There’ll be many others…
