A code with a 10^15 loop gets accepted in 15ms.

Revision en4, by amanmehta-maniac, 2017-05-26 00:02:10

I was recently wondering what complexity loop can be used in less than 1 sec. For the same, I took one of my previously solved problems and added an extra loop but, even after I increase the looping to as high as 10^15, I get Accepted within 15ms. How could this happen?

Attached is a screenshot of my solution which includes a 10^15 loop which gets accepted within 15ms.
