I think that k = 0 is a special case in the problem D.

    Yes!!! I also asked about it and I got this message:

    There is some bug within this algorithm. I find out some kind of data that can prove it wrong.

    7 4 18
..X.
....
....
....
.**.
....
*b..

    This version of code's answer is
    DDDLLDDRDULUURRUUU
    But the true answer should be
    DDDLLDDRDRRUUUUUUL Arriving the position "b", obvoiusly the previous answer is not the good one.

    I have submited another code for this problem and got it accepted.

    Thank you.

    Hope it helped

      BTW, the correct answer for this case is DDDLLDDRDRRUUULUUU since 'L' is minimal than 'U' Hope you update it soon enough, Thank you!

    I did the same reversal algorithm 26987013 and was so mad how it didn't pass although I'm choosing the minimal each step! Thanks so much for that lovely hack! :)

For problem C cycle in a maze. I would like to clarify a few points. First of all, a solution exists only when k is even because for every right step there has to be left step to neutralize it and for every up step there has to be down step to neutralize only then the initial and final positions could be same. 1)The use of 'D','L','R','U' is done in this order because it would result in the construction of the lexicographically minimal cyclic path which is the requirement of our problem. 2)The second point is that the robot never goes out of the reach of its initial point ch[x][y]='X' and therefore there is always a chance of returning back to the initial position. 3)Suppose currently robot is on the position a since dis[a]<=k so it can go back to the initial position back from here using the same path through which it came as there are no restrictions in travelling the same cell multiple times(even the starting one).
