In today's Codeforces Round (#763) problem B, I tried finding a pair object in a HashSet. Even after overriding equals() and hashcode() methods, I still ended up with WA on test 4. Here is the link to my solutions:

1) WA Submission using HashSet

2) Working Solution using 2D matrix

Please let me know of a good fix for this.

Use Integer.equals instead of == in your pair.equals, otherwise you get false when comparing two objects with the same value but different references. Btw, same bug in the pair.compareTo method.
