Help Required

Another zero-effort codechef problem poster.
If your only skill is copy and paste, then just give up now.

Otherwise, grab a pencil and paper and start sketching some ideas.

When you have an idea, try turning into code.
When you have an actual code question, feel free to post it here.

Sure, your first attempt might fail with "wrong result", "time limit exceeded", "memory exceeded" or whatever other categories codechef has.
But at least you're learning things by going through the process.

We're NOT here to do all your thinking for you.

Did you delete a post?

The codechef users are polluting this site and getting a bad rep for themselves. They beg for help showing little to no effort, delete their posts after getting an answer, report our best posters when told the truth about problems with their code, etc.

Why? Why should we help?
Sorry if this seems harsh but its an ongoing issue. We have a handful of people working these problems who have written some code and legit questions, but 90% of the posts are abuse of the forum. And for every legit question, we have people trying to trade solutions to cheat points on the CC site.

Yeah, another OP decides to delete and run away.
Good riddance.

The OP did actually bother to send a PM, but it was so pithy I deleted it.
It did say they wouldn't be back - let's hope so.
