If two persons have same idea for a problem, then they are cheaters. Woww !!
By Fahmid_rng, history, 6 weeks ago, In English

All of you who solved 2256C - Hot Potatoes at the Fairy Warehouse know very well that this is a simple ad-hoc problem. It is not an implementation heavy problem at all. Almost idea behind all the solutions are exactly the same. Also, My submission is quite different than this one. My coding style like parity checking using And operator, templates are not the same as the other person. It's like, in a contest, you are asked to print "Hello World". Then, system will detect that all the users have same code and all of your codes of that contest will be marked "Skipped".

MikeMirzayanov, I want to confirm you that I never cheated in any CF contest and I request you to review my case, restore my submissions, remove the "Skipped" verdicts and keep my account active.

Sadly, the evidence is stacked against you:

  1. Both functions are identical line by line, other than the variable names, which is not normal.
  2. Suddenly, your coding style changed.You stopped using your usual defined loops, and your previous code from C doesn’t resemble the latest one.

So, most likely, there is some funky stuff going on.I’d suggest deleting the blog and trying harder next time. Looking at your profile and submissions,I strongly believe you cheated in the contest by frustration. So don’t worry about your rating, just keep improving and try again next time.

    I basically tried to do the exact same thing in my previous code. And, yeah, you are correct that I was very tired and frustated about the fact that now I can't solve C. Then, being hopeless, I thought my idea isn't correct and so I deleted everything and started writing from scratch. And, actually, I was ready to get -ve delta. But, suddenly, I realized that, say, s = 0010, then my previous code would make final string 1000 which isn't correct as the expected final string is 0001. So, I didn't try to take any risk by directly modifying s. Instead, I took a new string t such that if I see 10 in s, I will make 01 in t. I was too disappointed that I even forgot to use my own defined loop. I CAN CHALLENGE THAT I'VE NOT CHEATED. And, I see no reason to delete this post. I love and respect thoughts of people.
