I believe B was too tight on constraints https://codeforces.me/contest/2020/submission/283621067 Here's my solution you can check. Make hi = 2*k and it would work.

  1. You pasted same code.

  2. I found your submissions.

  3. seems like you didn't consider floating precision error.

  4. here's mine with STL 283569591

    Ok thanks. I will do some research into floating point imprecision and how to avoid it.
