1400 is nothing when 1000 is for attendance. People like @taran_1407 , @aryanc403 , @abdullah768 and many more gets so many laddus by actually getting a good rank.

I think the best answer i want to hear.
Thanks a lot.
I have a friend who do competitive programming some years ago suggested the same and i followed it. I do participate in all three challenges (Long challenges, cook off and lunchtime) so that speed and concepts both improve at the same time. Explanation on CF is quite much relatable. I noticed the same fact not that confident to post anywhere.

Yup I got to know about Abdullah Donating T shirts on fb because he has too many laddus :stuck_out_tongue:

I would say that codeforces is the best.
But the thing is that youโ€™ve to practice a lot harder there to see good results. So work really hard for say 6-7 months, then only expect good results, or else be ready to always have a rating less than 1800 and not so good feelings.
But thats the best way to improve if ratings donโ€™t affect you :slight_smile:

I would suggest to do long challenge as well because imo you will learn more implementation part.
That wont Happen on CF unless you upsolve all questions after every contest.
Codechef long improves implementation for beginners.
CF focuses more on logic part.
