The question states the MINIMUM distance to be travelled to get to an island is a[i] not EXACT. But the solution/tutotial use EXACT distance.
I think this question deserves a review

What's the difference?
I've heard a lot of complaints about the phrasing in this problem, and I do apologize for any confusion that came from this. With that being said, the phrasing is correct: I'm not the best at explaining things and I'm slightly tired, so if you're still confused, I'd recommend putting the statement into chatgpt / gemini / any other AI tool and ask it why it's correct.
Hello nik_exists,
This letter is about my skip from the contest.
First, I want to make clear that I didn’t cheat or use any external programs during the competition. I made my solutions by myself relying only on my knowledge.
Of course, the anti-cheat can find some similarities or something strange, and I fully understand the necessity of this measure. Nevertheless, I think that I was flagged by mistake.
If there was something in my code which attracted your attention, I will be grateful if you could tell me what it was. Besides, I am fully ready to explain my solutions and every line of my code so that you could see that I understood everything by myself.
Thank you for your consideration.
it says that the minimum distance that bessie NEEDS to travel, which means that if she travels this distance in some direction, she will hit treasure. get better at reading comprehension bud
That doesnt change dogshit bud, minimum distance means she could travel any distance biggwr than v[i]
