So I found these two cheaters in today's contest. They are from from the **same institute** (Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida). They have been doing this in at least 2 past contests now.↵
↵
User 1: **Akash Sharma** [user:akash_sharma100,2020-07-21]↵
↵
User 2: **Harsh Pandey** [user:Harsh_jiit,2020-07-21]↵
↵
Obviously, these users made good efforts to hide the plagiarism by kinda writing same lines of codes in 2 different ways.↵
↵
Submissions:↵
↵
A: [submission:87530347] by Akash and [submission:87541714] by Harsh (Apparently Harsh has a lot of penalties in previous submissions that are not similar to Akash's)↵
↵
B: [submission:87559272] by Akash and [submission:87554697] by Harsh↵
↵
C1: [submission:87578447] by Akash and [submission:87583632] by Harsh (Can you notice Harsh tried to hide his _func_ function definition, which is exactly the same as _operate_ in Akash's code btw, below between the template? XD)↵
↵
C2: [submission: 87587393] by Akash and [submission:87592242] by Harsh (I dont need to say anything about this one XD)↵
↵
↵
Maybe if you present me with 2 similar looking submissions, I cannot definitely say whether they cheated. But it is very very suspicious for 2 users to have such kind of similarities in all the problems in a single contest.↵
↵
Btw, they did the same in the last contest (#657) and both of them got big deltas (+139 and +71). Check their submissions.↵
↵
I know CF team is very busy with more important things but I think pointing out even a single cheater is still worth it. Kindly take appropriate actions↵

[UPD](https://codeforces.me/blog/entry/80433?#comment-667139) The cheaters have been banned from the contest.
