Oh, thanks. I didn't know about that "optimistic" scenario!

I think maybe something went wrong on my B & C programs on the large
sets during the contest, though my B program still test "Correct" and
C showing "Incorrect", both on large data sets, in practice mode.


PS
If I was Google/GCJ-Admin, I would suggest to remove the small sets,
and let contestants only deal with large sets which represent all
possible cases of a given problem.
