Today I tried to solve Problem D(div2) of last Contest ( Codeforces Round 310 (Div. 2) ). In this problem I used lower_bound() function on a set of pair of pair and int ( set< pair< pair<long long, long long> , int > >
). Here is my ACed submission 11834954 and my TLE submission 11835029 . I don't know why I get TLE in second code. :S
Ok, Let me explain what I 've done here, I have a set like set< pair< pair<long long, long long> , int > > bridges
on which I tried to apply lower_bound() function ( in line number 171 in my both code ). In first submission I used lower_bound() as like bridges.lower_bound(make_pair(keyValue,0LL))
and I got AC. But in my second code I used lower_bound() as like lower_bound(bridges.begin(),bridges.end(),make_pair(keyValue,0LL))
and I got TLE on case 11.
What is the difference between calling lower_bound() function in above mentioned 2 way ?
