Yes, you learned it the hard way, didn't you?

It is good that you have warned others.

Not so!

I have used Yahoo! mail (two words, and make sure you include the exclamation) for some time to submit my solutions, though I've switched to the online submissions lately.

First of all, disable HTML in preferences and send it as text. Don't complain that it doesn't send in text, because that's an option in there. Also, at the end, add @END_OF_SOURCE_CODE so that the little Yahoo! ad doesn't mess up your compile.

Just use Submit-o-matic and all such problems will be solved.

use this line at the beginning: /* "@BEGIN_OF_SOURCE_CODE" */
use this line at the end: /* "@END_OF_SOURCE_CODE" */

i hope then you will not get compil error.

A really great way to submit (the best one in my opinion, and definitely the fastest), if you're using windows, is the CD-Man's progam (see main acm.uva.es/p/ page). It really rocks !! A simple click and you're done. Thanks to the author !
