**About the discrepency in Marking the borders question :**      ↵
                                           ↵
There was a discrepancy in one of the input files for the question, Marking the borders. There was a single line missing in the input file. Even then many participants got accepted, but some received *WA* or *TLE*. It was a bit surprising about how had it not come up during the testing phase, but after reviewing a couple of solutions which didn't get accepted because of this, we observed that codes using $scanf$ were getting affected. Unfortunately even though all testers had tested this question, everyone used $cin$ / $cout$. We still don't know for sure that if $scanf$ / $cin$ thing was the only difference that lead to such a result. Sorry for the inconvenience caused due to this.                                                    ↵

We still hope that you enjoyed the problemset though, and thank you for participating!!↵
