Hi David, Thank you very much for your time, In no way I intended to speak anything wrong,actually I tested all test cases available or posted in the community and even some custom made test cases and all of them are giving me correct output in very short time, so I am kind of frustrated , still not having figured out the reason for non-acceptance of code. I understand as you rightly mentioned "A significant part of the challenge of Code Jam comes from learning how to test your own solutions", but I left no stone unturned trying to test the code as per my capability as well with others' test cases , Still no satifactory reason found not to be accepted, Thanks again for your time and if you could suggest some test cases where you might think my code could be vulnerable that will be great, Regards, Ayan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Code Jam" group.
