@anon44231457 Yes, i can help you. there is a wrong in your answer. the solution should be in O(1) but i don’t think your solution followed that formation.

just check it once it is O(1)

@anon44231457 in your first else why didn’t you give indentation?

         if(n<=k)
        {
           cout<<"A\n";            
        }
        else
        {
        if((n)%(k+1)==0)
        {
            cout<<"B\n";
        }
        else
15

can you explain briefly??
It is a c++ code not python

16

Yes, i was wrong. I think I have to analysis the logic carefully. I will find the mistake soon and then tell you.

17

Just add this line after cin>>n>>k; and try

assert(n>0);

If n=0 then your code and accepeted code will give different results.
According to constraints n should not be 0.
But what if wrong test cases?

I guess it has something to do with the brackets in the if statement of the else part.
Try if((n%(k+1))==0) and then try to submit.

25

but in the constraint n>=1

26

@akash19jain how is that even possible that brackets make answer wrong … pls dont guess…

27

There does not look any error.
So we can only guess.:smile:

Wow, how can you say that the brackets don’t make an answer wrong. There are multiple cases when because of the brackets, the answer received is different from than what was expected.
And I am not just making a random guess but an educated guess looking at the results.
I can only confirm once the problem is moved to practice and I can make some manipulations and submit his program.

This seems the most likely explanation to me.
