@admin Most of the solutions of FINXOR are copied from this video - YouTube. Some even went as far as to change the language and implement it in C++.

Hopefully! These people are ruining a great platform used by global sport programmers.
Hope moss can also detect code with changed var names.

All of a sudden people realized oh letā€™s make patterns of ā€œ001101010101ā€ and similar in @EQDIV, People might not have cheated but there was spread of the idea like gossip.

@admin during long challenge plagiarism check should be done regularly and solution template similar to oneā€™s uploaded on youtube should be discarded

Please get this, community people are doing best to catch those who cheat.
I takes time because itā€™s free platform and so they have limited servers. And they are doing best to get over it.

look at this solution
naming and putting for loops for no reason

May beā€¦ but the problem itself was NP and because of the given constraints the solution will give TLE if you use DP. But if you print all the solutions for k=1, it is very easy to see that all of the strings follow some pattern and it was enough evidence to be sure that other subtask can also be solved by pattern.

That person has already been plagiarized in previous contest. Hope he gets banned if he has actually copied.

I have seen people becoming 5* coders because it is impossible to become on their own. Kudos to the code leakers for making fool out of such cheap cheaters.

coincidence they may call it ? but isnā€™t exact same solution a rare coincidence ? So I invite others to witness this too.

I think this solution was leaked. I have also seen this solution number of times. Donā€™t worry they will get their ratings updated after the plagiarism check.
