Everytime i'm receiving this Wrong Answer reply including
"Your program has not solved the problem. It ran during 0.002 seconds."

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>


int function(int k);
int count;
void main()
{
int m,n,i,temp,maxCount,tempCount;

scanf("%d %d",&n,&m);


if(n>m)
{
temp=n;
n=m;
m=temp;

}

maxCount=function(n);
for(i=n+1;i<=m;i++)
{
tempCount=function(i);
if(maxCount<tempCount)
{ temp=tempCount;
tempCount=maxCount;
maxCount=temp;
}


}

printf("\n %d %d %d",n,m,maxCount);

}


int function(int k)

{ count=1;

while(k!=1)
{ count++;
if((k%2)==0)
k=k/2;
else
k=3*k+1;
}

return count;

}
But compiler in my pc giving the required result.
so, What's the problem in it??????

Your program solves the problem for one set of input. But the judges data file contains many lines of input.

There is a popular sticky thread regarding this problem. Please view it if you continue to have trouble regarding this problem.

Thanks for the reply. I've simply changed the following thing

while(scanf("%d %d",&n,&m)!=EOF)

And the entire code is as follows:

/* @JUDGE_ID: 47052RM 100 C "3n+1 problem" */



#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>


int function(int k);
int count;
main()
{
int m,n,i,temp,maxCount,tempCount;

while(scanf("%d %d",&n,&m)!=EOF) {

if(n>m)
{
temp=n;
n=m;
m=temp;

}

maxCount=function(n);
for(i=n+1;i<=m;i++)
{
tempCount=function(i);
if(maxCount<tempCount)
{ temp=tempCount;
tempCount=maxCount;
maxCount=temp;
}


}

}

printf("\n %d %d %d",n,m,maxCount);


}

int function(int k)
{ count=1;

while(k!=1)
{ count++;
if((k%2)==0)
k=k/2;
else
k=3*k+1;
}

return count;

}

But this time it gives compile error.

Here are the compiler error messages:

02623883_24.c:38: parse error before string constant
02623883_24.c:38: warning: data definition has no type or storage class

Can u pls help me??
I'm a new learner of C.

I don't think it gives compile error. I submitted the code and it got WA.

I think you better use the Submit-o-matic to submit the problems, instead of submitting through mail.

Here is the link: http://acm.uva.es/p/submit.php

As for the WA, I ran yourd code using VC6, your program only produces output for the very last case.

I've modified my code:


#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>


long function(long k);
int count;
void main()
{
long m,n,temp,maxCount,tempCount;
long i;

while(scanf("%ld %ld",&n,&m)!=0)

{ if(n>m)
{
temp=n;
n=m;
m=temp;

}

maxCount=function(n);
for(i=n+1;i<=m;i++)
{
tempCount=function(i);
if(maxCount<tempCount)
maxCount=tempCount;


}

printf("\n %ld %ld %ld",n,m,maxCount);

}


}

long function(long k)
{ count=1;

while(k!=1)
{ count++;
if((k%2)==0)
k=k/2;
else
k=3*k+1;
}

return count;

}

This time it shows time exceeded. Your program took 10.09 sec.

If i use
while(scanf("%d %d",&n,&m)!=0)
it takes 10.09 secs

If i use
while(scanf("%d %d",&n,&m!=EOF)
it takes 4.09 secs, But even in this case the program is not being accepted.

I'm getting crazy.

Hellow new comer!
Welcome to programmers zone. u didn't write the problem no! Though i thought the code is for problem no 100. Anyway, u should know how to write code first. Notice carefully where i modified your code. Another thing, think about variable length.

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h> //why do you include this header file?


int function(int k); //long k
int count;
void main()
{
int m,n,i,temp,maxCount,tempCount; //not int u can use long and add two variable ori1,ori2 for keeping original value of n and m.

scanf("%d %d",&n,&m); //u should read eof or just write: while(scanf("%ld %ld",&n,&m)==2)
{//begin of the while loop
ori1=n;
ori2=m;
if(n>m)
{
temp=n;
n=m;
m=temp;

}

maxCount=function(n);
for(i=n+1;i<=m;i++)
{
tempCount=function(i);
if(maxCount<tempCount)
{ temp=tempCount;//unnecessary line
tempCount=maxCount; //unnecessary line
maxCount=temp; //tempCount instead of temp
}


}

printf("\n %d %d %d",n,m,maxCount); //printf("%ld %ld %ld\n",ori1,ori2,maxCount); }//end of while loop.

}


int function(int k) //long k

{ count=1;

while(k!=1)
{ count++;
if((k%2)==0)
k=k/2;
else
k=3*k+1;
}

return count;

}

There still may have some error or not. Just try to understand the code that i changed or tried to change. If u fail in this time then plz just mail me: a_khanss@yahoo.com to help more. Wishing best of luck.

I born to code

Well here is the mistake:

if input is

10 20

output should be

10 20 21

if input is

20 10

output should be

20 10 21

Hope this helps

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;



int main()
{
int t, first, count,last, max=0;

while(cin >> first >> last){
cout << first << " " << last << " ";
if(first>=last)
{
t = first;
first = last;
last = t;
}

int i, j;

for(i=first;i<=last;i++)
{
if(i!=1)
{
j=i;
count = 1;
while(j!=1)
{
if(j%2==0)
j = j/2;
else
j = j*3+1;
count++;
}
}
else
count = 2;
if(count > max)
max = count;
}
cout << max << endl;
}

return 0;
}

I just changed your program a little,but I got AC,can you find the difference between yours and mine?

i have read and dont find answer for me, i always get Wrong Answer and tryed both ways, code and file:

[c]#include<stdio.h>

int ciclo(int x)
{
int cont=0;
while(1)
{
cont++;
if(x==1) return cont;
else
{
if(x%2==0) x=x/2;
else x=3*x+1;
}
}
return cont;
}


int main()
{
int a,b,i,temp=0,max=0;
while(scanf("%d %d",&a,&b)==2)
{
if(a<1 || a>1000000) return 0;
if(b<1 || b>1000000) return 0;
for(i=a;i<=b;i++)
{
temp=ciclo(i);
if(temp>max) max=temp;
}
printf("%d %d %d\n",a,b,max);
temp=0;
max=0;
}
return 0;
}
[/c]

Whats the problem? any1 know?

by looking quikly at your code i believe your problem is that you forgot to add an if-clause to handle switched input (cases that a > b).

cheers,

fpnc wrote:I don't know either. You can see my submission got AC (and it was a copy-and-paste submission of your first code).

Anyway, please note down the full submission number when you find this kind of things as we can retrieve your submissions and try to find out what happens.

I'm having saort of same problems, so
following your advice, what should I do
with the submission numbers?

Here are my two submission numbers:
2697786
2697732

Considernig my problems with the problem 100,
I believe I know what is wrong.

THE PROBLEM IS STATED INCORRECTLY.
<problem>
You can assume that no opperation overflows a 32-bit integer.
</problem>

This is NOT TRUE!!!
Computing the cycle length for 113383
overflows 32-bit integer on step 120,
where n=827370449

How come NOBODY HAS NOTICED IN SO MANY YEARS?

I can only assume you people meant unsigned
integer. If so you should have said so.
Because if you say 32-bit integer, most
people understands 32-BIT INTEGER.
32-bit INTEGER IS A __SIGNED__ INTEGER, in all
languages I know (and know of).

PS:
Sorry for all these CAPS, but this nonsense
has caused me to waste way too much time.

Funny, now my code gets accepted - unchanged
since I last tried to post it and got WA.

Now, on the subject of int overflow: looked
at most of the C/C++ code from this thread
and all the code i looked at IS __WRONG__
and apparently got accepted anyway (if
someone is interested then the test
with n = 113383 could prove interesting).
Go figure.

Also, could someone explain why in 100
and 110 I got PE? I figure if the program
in 110 shall fail compilation it should
be rejected, and if the writelines were
not on separate lines it should be rejected
as well. What else is there???
Now on 110: I'm using
printf("%s %s %d\n", blah, blah, blah)
What could possibly be wrong here?

I'd love to solve some more problems
but I'd hate for any more of my time being
wasted.
Could someone explain what is happening here?
