bad validator in problem E div2 #411
By kastarino, history, 8 years ago, In English

in problem E of the last contest http://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/805/problem/E i was surprised to see that many people managed to pass the tests outputting wrong answers like these guys: http://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/805/submission/26866266 http://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/805/submission/26865714 http://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/805/submission/26865560 they output numbers outside the range (1,c) and the validator doesn't notice it somehow and they get accepted i just wanted to share this issue with you guys :)

There were just 4 person accept in this way I see. The problem in the checker solved after a few minutes in the contest, probably we delete the persons or change their ranks. How ever I apologize you all.

This issue has affected only one participant during the round. Now the checker is fixed.
