very very annoying Presentation Errors

I've already come across several problems which are not precise on the output format, and since I try very hard to keep my total submissions at a minimum, it's very annoying to spend around 10 or more submissions to figure out why I'm getting PE!!

Some problems I just haven't figured how should the output be formatted, for instance 445 http://acm.uva.es/p/v4/445.html and 10066 http://acm.uva.es/p/v100/10066.html.

Does anyone know how to get ACC without PE in these problems? Please contact me if you know how, I can send you my code too.

The problems specifications should be clearer about this... please help :) thanks and happy coding!

For 445, omit the last newline. Next time, first check the board for posts on the problems you have troubles with, only then post here.
