Here is my prograrm:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

main()
{
int r,a[10],i,cnt;
while(1)
{
cnt =0;
r=scanf("%d%d%d%d%d%d%d%d%d",&a[0],&a[1],&a[2],&a[3],&a[4],&a[5],&a[6],&a[7],&a[8]);
if(r==EOF) break;
for (i=0;i<9;i++)
if (a!=0)
{
if (cnt>=1)
{
if (a<0) printf(" - ");
else printf(" + ");
}
else if (cnt<1 && a<0) printf("-");

if (a<0) a=a*(-1);
if (i<7)
{
if (a==1)
printf("x^%d",9-i-1);
else
printf("%dx^%d",a,9-i-1);
}
if (i==7)
{
if (a==1)
printf("x");
else printf("%d^x",a);
}
if (i==8)
printf("%d",a[i]);
cnt++;
}
if (cnt==0) printf("0");
printf("\n");

}

do a favor and use a code tag.
about line 12(?) from bottom:

Code: Select all

else printf("%d^x",a[i]); 
why do you have '%d^x'? maybe you meant 'x^%d'?

According to your test input, my program also gives the correct output.
But still WA? :( Any other suggestion?
Is there any possibilities that the input doesn't contain 9 integer (maybe less than 9) ?

No I don't remember any problems with input. What I do remember is that this problem has a LOT of tricky cases and you have to track them down one by one. I recalled getting quite frustrated before AC...

Problem is, I don't remember the tricky cases already.

Good luck!

It's Ok if you don't remember the tricky cases.
Since I still got WA in this problem, would you mind sending your 392.exe file to my e-mail (angga888@indosat.net.id) to check my program again ? :wink:
Thanx.

I will send you my code. But I can't do it now. I'll send it a few days later. Ok? It's so rush time now - holydays, snow, mountains...
Well that's fine. :lol: I just can't get the computer where I keep the codes... :wink:

Happy new year to everybody!

Thx Andrey Mokhov for your 392.exe file.
After I got your exe file, I gived so many inputs to your exe file and compared the output with mine. But my output was correct for all those inputs.
Finally, I tried to submit the problem once more and I added one more line in my program (readln(input)) and I got Accepted. :D
Maybe, the judge test cases, can be more than 9 integers and we must calculate for the first 9 integers and ignore the rests. :wink:
I think that's why I always got WA and WA.

I used

while (scanf ("%d%d%d%d%d%d%d%d%d",
&poly[0],& bla bla bla bla bla ) == 9)

and I got accepted

I use C to solve it, I don't know anything about
pascal input reading :wink:


best regards.

P392 Polynomial Showdown

Post by jeanmart »

Do not forget to add at least one blank space at the end of each
answer line (as not specified in the rules). Otherwise, you get a WA.

Really?
I didn't add any spaces but I still got Accepted.
I think the space doesn't matter.
