I have several questions :)
How to solve problem #3? What was the problem with testcases to problem #1? Why don't you fix this during contest? Will you discard submissions to problem #2, which were made before you fixed input format in statement?
Hey pal, I set the problem #3. I can share the solution:
https://ideone.com/j06NN7.
In #1, I forgot to decrement the pos in the update function, considered 0-based indexing.
the #2 was a human error, which we corrected when we encountered it.
Thanks!
What about my last question?
No, I don't think we can discard the submissions which were made before the sample testcase was changed. The inconvenience caused is regretted.
For me this inconveniences cost first place :(
Yeah, it was just a human error, we would try not to repeat any errors in our future contests. Thank you for your participation though it was really appreciated.
I commented, are you sure that the test data is correct and they suddenly removed the problem while i thought they will fix it soon. I submitted that problem in 25 minutes and next 15 minutes i was debugging my code if it has some bugs and unfortunately they just removed it.
We are really sorry for that.
It's alright bruh!
