Invitation to CodeChef August Long Challenge 2018 sponsored by ShareChat!

Why discuss @Mike when we already got a hardworking @admin tiring herself day and night for you guys to discuss about? :wink:

Exactly, waiting for 5 mins here!

@pshishod2646, your complexity analysis is wrong. I will explain it later after the contest.

@likecs - Did you saw my latest solution?

@likecs you might have seen my latest solution (the correct one)… And I am damn clear about my time complexity analysis…I even run my code on my PC for worst case…IT DIDN’T OUTPUT ANYTHING EVEN AFTER 10 MINUTES…

If you want they I can send you my code along with the worst case.

@likecs If the intended solution is same as mine then let me tell you that I know that though time complexity seems O(Something) but it is much less than that…But there is a corner test case for which it is really O(Something) and it time outs!!

@pshishod2645 - I think that its best to discuss this in comments section of the problem, or over mail or a private channel with @likecs , as you both can discuss to your hearts content there :). I also dont want anything like “@pshishod2645 discussed things related to contest but wasnt banned but my friend got banned wtf” since I am actively banning people. Hope you understand my dilemma :slight_smile:

What I can confirm is, that the problem is solvable :slight_smile:

Don’t ban me please :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

@vijju123 I didn’t discussed anything about the problem statement or solution, I am just pointing out a bug.

OK!! I will shut my mouth…Humanity is getting extinct with time xD

Lol I am not saying you did anything wrong. Its just that people make a mountain out of a small matter at times. Hope you understand :slight_smile:

@vijju123 @aryanc403 I am unable to edit my comment, if any of you can edit it (I think people with high reputation can edit other’s comment) then do it, or else I will delete that comment

@pshishod2645, we can discuss this over codeforces message if this is ok to you.

Maybe it means that you’re using more operations(K) than allowed.

@mgch, I am getting this type of verdict (refer link)!!

A verdict of -1 time tells that the something which you did made interactor violate one of the assertions throwing a RE error. It means you are not adhereing to the constraints (eg- at most K queries).

That is either because your output buffer is not clear or because you are making more operations(k) than allowed.

@admin @mgch please someone reply :frowning:
