how to compare all pairs faster than O(n^2) it gives TLE of course My algo is here. 1) Sort data in ascending order based on x coordinates. 2) Set default minimum distance d(d is distance between point1 and point2. 3) Restrict the x-range with d. 4) Copy 1) between x-range of 3). 5) --Sort 4) in as...
