Respected Team Codechef and @admin ,
I request for your help as i believe i have been unfairly penalized in the most recent Starters 146(div 3). I assure you that i have in no way copied anything from anyone, but still i got an email which told me that i copied.
The code in case is :
My Code
Someone Else’s Code
Problem Link
I hope that the Codechef team notices that i merely did what i was asked to do in the question. Basically In this Question We Were Asked asked to generate a permutation which followed some condition.
The Solution to this Was very simple after the logic became clear we basically had to fill the numbers in such a way that the difference between the element at i and i+2 would be one.
I just Simply Implemented This Solution into Code With Two Loops With The First Loop Filling The even Indexes and In the Second Loop Fulling The Odd Indexes.Now As The Code Of This Question Is very Simple After The Logic becomes clear , i believe this is a mere Coincidence That My Code Matched With Someone Else As This Is The Most Natural Way That Someone would Implement This .
I can assure you that i have not copied or shared my code from anyone/anywhere, it is just a coincidence that the Structure Of The Code looks Same.
I request that the team looks into the matter please.
Thanks.
