code chef uses certain set of compiler for assessment…
try to use the same on your machine…
there is difference between how you write code in turbo c++ and gcc compiler

while submitting the code … we are getting wrong answer as an error even though it is compiling and giving the output in the codechef compiler.

Well Basically Compilation Error Occurs When You Dont Follow The Syntax Which Is Used While Coding
Like Skipping The ‘;’ or forgetting to close the } or if u make the incorrect for construct and many more times.

Also Do Check If You Have Selected The Correct Language In The Submission Page As Sometimes In A Hurry We Often Chose The Wrong Language.

prog.c:2:18: fatal error: conio.h: No such file or directory

#include < conio.h >

compilation terminated

I encountered the above compilation error… Whats the problem?

@depanshushani , don’t use it at all. Use only <stdio.h>. Codechef doesn’t use Turbo C compiler. :slight_smile:

I use CodeBlocks. It is Best. You can download it and code here.

And I suggest you to code on codechef online IDE.

If code blocks is such a compiler ?

My programs ran successfully in code blocks .
conio.h is not used in my program .
Time doesn’t exceeded .
In codeblocks my program gave right output .
Then why my answer is shown as wrong in codechef ?

I am trying to run my program written fir solving the problem “Fake Binary Search” as a part of “May challenge 2018 DivB” but I am getting a strange compilation error for my JAVA code. Firstly, the program takes almost 40 minutes to run and the ide says “Submission Queued”. After completion, I get the following compilation error:

## Not Found

The resource could not be found.

Please help me someone. I am facing this strange issue first time. Is this a fault of mine or the codechef server has a problem?

Hello.
So the following the code which works absolutely fine in netbeans but when I upload on CODECHEF, it shows COMPILATION ERROR. Plz help.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
int l,b;
System.out.println("Enter length and breadth: ");
l=in.nextInt();
b=in.nextInt();
float area, peri;
area = l*b;
peri = 2*(l+b);
if(area>peri){
    System.out.println("Area");
    System.out.println("Area="+area);
}
else
    System.out.println("Perimeter");
System.out.println("Perimeter"+peri);

}
}

Yes. Sometimes output of codeblocks and codechef do differ- but ultimately thats due to some fault in your code which codeblocks ignores but codechef doesnt.

It has been the same for everyone for more than 1 hour. There are some problems with codechef submission. Admin, please fix this issue asap.

You can use online compiler for better result or you can use Vs code editor for better experience …

use EditPlus as another alternative for all languages, it is same as Turbo not allowing any type of predefined or anything. It is the best platform for beginners to gain all knowledge and not get habituated to pre-made foods.
