About the discrepency in Marking the borders question :

There was a discrepancy in one of the input files for the question, Marking the borders. There was a single line missing in the input file. Even then many participants got accepted, but some received WA or TLE. It was a bit surprising about how had it not come up during the testing phase, but after reviewing a couple of solutions which didn't get accepted because of this, we observed that codes using $$$scanf$$$ were getting affected. Unfortunately even though all testers had tested this question, everyone used $$$cin$$$ / $$$cout$$$. We still don't know for sure that if $$$scanf$$$ / $$$cin$$$ thing was the only difference that lead to such a result. Sorry for the inconvenience caused due to this.

We still hope that you enjoyed the problemset though, and thank you for participating!!
