Revision ru1, by IcantComeUpWithOrigName, 2020-06-19 14:23:28

How often are situations, when you have solved problem earlier or at the same as other participants, but he is above you because his code is faster and consumes less memory?(Given that both codes are fast enough to pass all test cases) Is it possible on codeforce or any other platform and tournament? In that case how often does it happen? Sorry, for grammar, I am not a native speaker.
