Hello coders,
I sometimes feel that there is inconsistency in the reported time taken by Codechef judge and Online IDE.
Please see my two submissions:
Both submissions are exactly same and still one is TLE and other is AC for subtask #1.
Considering that test cases may be randomly generated, many times when I test my code on online IDE, I find my verdict: Time Limit Exceeded(5 Sec). but, when I resubmit exact same code it shows code executed in 0.02 Sec.
Can someone explain what I am missing?
#another has,
And you are comparing “int” to “long int” in the solution u got TLE…(i.e in condition of “for” loop because “i,j” are long int and “l,r” are int)
keeping them in same data type may resolve ur issue…
Oops, Sorry submission id got changed I edited with EXACT same code.
Also, In CPP, it typecast accordingly. The problem arises if either of two value is above the range which was not the case here. Peace.
Let me have a look.
If I am looking into it, it means that there is a high chance that I will drag @admin as well xD
Forwarded the case to them already, and they are looking over it.
any follow-up?
Most probably it is a judge issue. The issue was fixed a few months ago and they are contemplating on why this occurred. But nothing I said above is concrete- they are still looking over it - so it might not be the actual reason.
I’d automatically update if I receive any follow up from them dear.
