Could someone verify the I/O below
( it comes from my WA program ).

Or post some more test I/O ?

A modified version of my program prints each number in
two decimal digits ( i.e. 03 instead of 3 ). It also gets WA.

Here are my outputs that are accepted by the old judge program. The empty lines are invalid input. Each line must contain a space.

Hi Abednego!

First, thanks for the answer.

One question - what do you mean by "the old judge" ?

I got it ACC a few minutes ago. The WAs I was getting were
due to a very very subtle BUG in my program.

I managed to discover this BUG by solving
problem 526 first. I've found a sample I/O from
little joey for 526 / tomorrow - sorrow - no sorrow

/
which has revealed my BUG.

I don't think any of the sample inputs given here and
in the other thread
http://online-judge.uva.es/board/viewtopic.php?t=7152
were able to reveal that BUG of mine.

Thanks once again for answering me.

I will be happy to help others which still have WA on 164 by
giving them some sample I/O or in some other way.

Regards !

I sent a new judge program for this problem to the judge maintainers. I guess they are busy now, but it should be rejudged eventually.

Posted: **Tue May 24, 2005 7:36 pm**

probably, this is the one I got AC. sorry, but I am really 2 busy 2 get the output. just do it, ok?

I mean, this is probably more harm than good, but this is the only way I can help. sorry.

Code: Select all

it is gone. sorry.

Experimenter, I got ACC on problem 164 soon after
my previous post. Thank you anyway.

If that is an ACC code better don't post it here, it will become a spoiler

Thanks once again.

I cannot find this "delete"-button 2 delete it.

Just use the edit button

I used the algorithm that appears in the Programming Challenges book, and now my code is rejected. Is the algorithm wrong or the judge solution has to be checked again?

Posted: **Sat Jun 25, 2005 1:20 pm**

Post your code here, and I will look at it. I hope that it's not a mistake in my special judge.

Posted: **Sun Jun 26, 2005 9:46 am**

The code that they used for their algorithm is:

Code: Select all

int string_compare(char *s, char *t)
{
	int i,j,k;		/* counters */
	int opt[3];		/* cost of the three options */

	for (i=0; i<MAXLEN; i++) {
		row_init(i);
		column_init(i);
	}

	for (i=1; i<strlen(s); i++)
		for (j=1; j<strlen(t); j++) {
			opt[MATCH] = m[i-1][j-1].cost + match(s[i],t[j]);
			opt[INSERT] = m[i][j-1].cost + indel(t[j]);
			opt[DELETE] = m[i-1][j].cost + indel(s[i]);

			m[i][j].cost = opt[MATCH];
			m[i][j].parent = MATCH;
			for (k=INSERT; k<=DELETE; k++)
				if (opt[k] < m[i][j].cost) {
					m[i][j].cost = opt[k];
					m[i][j].parent = k;
				}
		}

	goal_cell(s,t,&i,&j);
	return( m[i][j].cost );
}

I'm assuming that
INSERT = 0,
MATCH = 1 and
DELETE = 2.

First of all, if m=strlen(s) and n=strlen(t), then this algorithm takes m*n*n time because you have strlen(t) inside the loop.

Also, I don't know what these functions do:
match()
indel()
row_init()
column_init()
goal_cell()

Generally, it looks correct, but the goal_cell() function is tricky. My guess is that the mistake is in there.

You can find the full source code at:

But you didn't submit 3 files to the judge. If you send me the source code that you submitted, I can run the special correction program on it and tell you what your mistake is. My email is abednego at gmail.

This problem is driving me mad too!
This time i get TLE, and I really can't find a rational explanation for it. Can somebody help me?
