strange behavior of CF judger
Difference between en1 and en2, changed 10 character(s)
In problem CF1416F [Showing Off](https://codeforces.me/problemset/problem/1416/F), I had a solution that would originally cause TLE. I passed the problem by implementing a **time-out -hack**.(a trick to avoid TLE )↵
However, even when I set the threshold to 
**6.1 seconds** (problem time limit: 6 seconds), the solution still passed. How did it happen? ↵
The partial code:↵
↵
```cpp↵
while(dep[s]<=t){↵
    if((clock()-timecode)>6.1*CLOCKS_PER_SEC){//Time-out Hack↵
        cout<<"NO\n";↵
        return ;↵
    }↵
    setval(now,0);↵
    maxflow+=Dinic(s,INF);↵
}↵
signed main(){↵
    int timecode=clock();↵
    int T;cin>>T;↵
    while(T--)Work();↵
    return 0;↵
}↵
```↵
↵
