Considering today’s Leetcode contest, and Codeforces Div2, I can’t think anything positive about Cook-off now :frowning:

They may seem similar but they are actually very different when you solve it!
For eg, in codechef’s problem, if(n>60) ans is “NO” because there will be repetitions in bits.
If you try to solve this problem using leetcode’s version of the problem you will receive TLE.

How have you all thought about the logic of BOJACK to be 2*‘a’ + 2*‘b’ ???

Mine was (d times ‘a’) + ‘b’ + (d times ‘a’)

No.
If N > 60, then the answer will always be NO, and you break out of the loop after at most 61 iterations.

That’s probably because of weak testcases! :confused:
