Why does this code give AC and the other WA? They are nearly exactly the same...

I have no idea, I find them really the same. I spent quite sometime debugging, but I can't reach anything.

It's a dp problem.

If the code is not clear, or the logic. I can add more details.

Thanks.

memset has wrong arguments. The third argument indicates the amount of bytes to be filled and as such should be 5001 * sizeof(long long). It works in one case because the array is initialized with zeroes (I believe that the arrays in heap get zero-initialized in C++, although I might be wrong or it might not be in the standard), so in the case of AC memset does nothing. In the case of WA about 3/4 of your dp end up being already "calculated" as 0.

Note that memset's second argument is also a byte. So, it works when filling ints with -1 because of two's complement, however it won't work with 1 for example in the fashion you might have expected.
