Special cases to hack the solution
By ronak037, history, 4 years ago, In English

I observed from a long time that in every contest there are some guys who add special cases to their solution to hack them after the contest which I think is not a good spirit. Like here this is a solution link of today's contest where he add some cases to get runtime error on the question A which is not good. They just use these things to increase their points by hacking them so please sir MikeMirzayanov take some actions against the id's like that.

Thank you.

Note: For edu rounds (and div3 and div4), you don't get points for hacking.

I agree this is a problem, although I really don't understand what's the point of doing this if you don't even get anything from it.

    yeah, you are right. I also didn't understand why they do this.
