I have received a mail and a message from the codeforces system that my solution of problems A, B and C of codeforces round #884 Codeforces Round 884 (Div. 1 + Div. 2) coincides with a person with codeforces user handle Yash_1308.I came to see now that he was using my template in the previous round, which I had been using for the last one year. It is the case of some code pasted before the contest, and nothing was done during the contest.

Problem A: My submission 213301983 Problem A: His submission 213308099 Problem B: My submission 213315128 Problem B: His submission 213332212 Problem C: My submission 213338146 Problem C: His submission 213352663 I regularly give contests and use this template from around 30 previous contests. So, this shows that I am not a cheater, and I have neither provided any solution nor copied during the contest, which proves that I am not a cheater.

I would request MikeMirzayanov and duality to please look into the matter and remove my plag as I have not done anything wrong.

I rolled back the punishments. But I highly recommend that you don't use a lot of unused code in your template. Its presence can affect the results of anti-plagiarism and greatly increase the burden on me.
