hello,
I tried solving this problem using vector algebra without using binary search technique.I moved the point
Q with time t and then checked the perpendicular distance from the center .My solution was not correct and
I am not able to figure out my mistake.
Here is the link to my submitted code.

I used the same approach as mentioned in the editorial using python 3.
I am getting TLE for 6 out of 7 tasks.
The link for the code is:
Could anyone please check and see whats wrong with my code.
It will be of great help. Thanks!!
@p1p5_5 I implemented the same idea. You can see the solution here

Hello @saurav96 here is your accepted code:Link The only problem was precision since you had used float it was resulting to less precision. Use double or long double to resolve. You can also see this link for more info:gfg
hello,
can someone help me understand this concept.
i want to use this formula asā¦
|PC X PQ| / |PQ| = R
so does PC represents C(x,y,z) - P(x,y,z) ?
if soā¦
how to get values for a,b,c using numerator |PC X PQ| ??
please help.
Thanks.
O notation doesnāt take into account constant factors. Still updated it for reference.
code snippet is same as the one mentioned in editorial
I went a different route and used axis rotations and translations to calculate the intersections of the path Q takes and the cone created by the sphere and Point P as the apex of the cone. ālong doubleā precision was good enough - I only had to manually detect the sample test case and output ā1ā for that one. xD
What I wanted to say was, that constant was based on your N. You wont be using the same 100 iteration for high={10}^{1000}. The doubt I had is, that, this K (where K is no. of iterations) must be \ge logN. Hence I feel its theoretically wrong to call it O(1). Am I right? Or am I missing something?
Yes, that was exactly my point!
Seems Ok. Will update it in a while.
Thanks
was expecting thisā¦ PS: I have tried many solutions for this oneā¦ one of them luckily workedā¦
|PC x PQ'| / |PQ'| == r
You are comparing float here!
To be pedantic, itās not only dependent on t_\text{max} either. Itās more like O(\log(t_\text{max}/\epsilon)).
Yes my two solutions giving different outputs passed.

i.e. sort them according to run time and select āACā
The test data is wrong. It is clearly mentioned that the point Q is not visible at time = 0 from P.
