Hey @shyam56 , your rating got decreased due to cheating in START156B:

I request you check the code manually that such a simple algorithm can be used by different people we can’t make many variations so that there are very huge chance of writing similar code. Please consider this you need make exception when we have such simple algorithms to solve

Exactly! I got flagged because of this question, and I solved it the same way you did

Hey @nikshaykataria and @shyam56 , Our plagiarism detection checks beyond just changing variable names or making small edits, it checks for deeper similarities in code structure and logic, So, just renaming variables but keeping the same logic can still count as plagiarism.

I would like to say that simple logic can be used by everyone. When logic is simple there is big chance code structure being same
