Could somebody who got this problem please explain the precise rules for computing n1 and n2? I used Mastermind rules, and I'm getting WA. Thanks.

Well, I used Mastermind rules too, i.e. for each hidden coin I checked like this:
Code: Select all
if (hidden[0] == guess[0]) ++n1;
else if (hidden[0] == guess[1] || hidden[0] == guess[2] || hidden[0] == guess[3]) ++n2;
Maybe, you missed the fact that all four coins that you have to guess are of distinct colors?
