hey guys! so i was working on this problem Stick Division on CSES on the USACO Guide. Eventually I got the right answer, but one of my first submissions was this LINK, which I thought ran in O(N^2) time: was very surprised to see that it ran through without being timed out seeing as N was a maximum of 10^5 (ofc 2 out of the 6 test cases passed anyways so still problematic). To summarize: my question is, what's the time complexity of this and if it's higher than O(NlogN), why did it run this way?
