an advice to codechef deploy a checker atleast for avoiding palagrim we could see that exactly same solutions are also passing the checker even the variable names are not been changed. i am sorry but it doesn’t give a good feeling as a contest giver but anyways if cheating happens or not i dont care i am here to increse my problem solving skills and rating are just a bonus for me personally…
but you can use accuracy for that checking even as if a question accuracy percentage is stagnant for around 5 percent for whole contest but in the end it 10 min or the time it start to increseing abruptly there might be chances that solution is available to the public . suppose it reached to 20 percent then there might be something fishy going on…
These are the contestants with same solution for this problem in div-2.
We can clearly understand that these contestants have cheated.
Here are are some of the solutions:

One would say that a 3* don’t need to cheat, but holy!
I mean, they don’t know that a syntax tree will detect similarities despite the name of the variables??
The code is absolutely redundant lol

@admin
85% of codes are exactly of the same structure as this:-
void solve()
{
int n,q; cin >> n>>q;
vector<int> a(n);
for (auto &x : a) cin >> x;
multiset<int> hi, lo;
int sum_hi = 0, sum_lo = 0;
vector<int>final;
for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i){
if (i & 1){
if (a[i] > *hi.begin()){
sum_hi += a[i] - *hi.begin();
sum_lo += *hi.begin();
lo.insert(*hi.begin());
hi.insert(a[i]);
hi.erase(hi.begin());
} else{
lo.insert(a[i]);
sum_lo += a[i];
}
} else {
if (lo.empty()){
hi.insert(a[i]);
sum_hi += a[i];
} else if (a[i] < *lo.rbegin()){
sum_hi += *lo.rbegin();
sum_lo += a[i] - *lo.rbegin();
hi.insert(*lo.rbegin());
lo.insert(a[i]);
lo.erase(lo.find(*lo.rbegin()));
} else{
hi.insert(a[i]);
sum_hi += a[i];
}
}
final.push_back(sum_hi-sum_lo);
}
for(int i=0;i<q;i++){
int x;
cin>>x;
cout<<final[x-1]<<" ";
}
cout<<endl;

@admin Codechef users would be much more happy if Codechef looks into this issue atleast 1 time :- CHEATING by "type_7_shady"
Channel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUOzgAUU7bs&ab_channel=Type7Shady
There have been 50+ blogs on this same topic here; why don’t you guys pay any attention?
Every contest on this youtube channel Codes are shown and sent live since last few months totally destroying the Codechef contest worth. Will you guys please take strict action against this? Can you see today’s contest 1000+ people solving the last problem. All limits of cheati9ng have been crossed.

@iloveoshijain - Plagiarism process runs after each contest.
Last contest - approx 1200 accounts were marked as cheaters - their ratings dropped before the next contest.
For folks posting solutions on youtube - we report such accounts to youtube - but there is nothing more that can be done about it.
That is really not justified. At least 30% of contest participants are cheaters. Because codes get released very early people have plenty of time to pass plagiarism. Codechef Plag Check is not that strong if someone is smart enough.
There were not just 1200 cheaters. There were more than 10000+ If I start linking the codes here there won’t be any limit
Why Codechef administrator does not take any action? What is the point of arranging such fake contest where almost everyone is having the solution code with them? Why can’t Codechef as a organization formally report it to YouTube via mail or something ?
Why no action ?
Its your own platform and its loosing its importance.
Atleast do a strict plag check for all the codes having same solution as this youtuber because it can be seen almost all are copying from here only - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUOzgAUU7bs&ab_channel=Type7Shady
well that’s sad
