why still scanf ??
By Brijesh1in, history, 8 years ago, In English

I have seen that mostly great programmers use scanf in C++ while they can use cin with ios::sync_with_stdio(false); cin.tie(NULL); I want to know why??

Sorry because I don't know how to put things into a block .... Thanks in advance .....

People use scanf because when the amount of test case are small the speed of scanf is still faster, but when the amount exceeds 1e7 cin overtakes scanf

scanf / printf more powerful than cin / cout because it use regular expressions.

when you use sync_with_stdio you can no longer use some convenient and fast ways of input / output
