Change your input parsing, don't forget about newline chars at the end of a line.
On this line:
scanf("%c",&a);
The first thing it reads is the newline char after N.

As BrianFry pointed change input parsing.

You can do it like this. Add this line to read newline char at the end.

Code: Select all

while (getchar() != '\n');

It must be

Code: Select all

while(scanf("%d",&s)!=EOF)
{
if(s==0)
break;
while (getchar() != '\n');
min=INT_MAX;

However this change doesn't lead to accepted.
Very strange things with scanf and getchar.

When i changed scanf to getchar it got WA again.

Code: Select all

for(n=0;n<s;n++)
{
e=0;
for(i=0;i<25;i++)
{
a[i] = getchar();
if(a[i]==' ')
e++;
}

When i changed it to gets it got accepted.

Code: Select all

for(n=0;n<s;n++)
{
e=0;
gets(a);
for(i=0;i<25;i++)
{
if(a[i]==' ')
e++;
}

I can't understand what's the difference between above 3 variants of code.

lighted, you need to read the newline char at the end of every line.
