Java 8 TLE with BufferedReader and not using Sort
By rajpm, history, 7 years ago, In English

I am getting TLE for a simple java program for reason I can't find. I read past blogs and found that using Scanner and sorting primitive type arrays is the general reason, but my program isn't in any of those category.

My submission: https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1206/submission/61017893

EDIT: Using the PrintWriter instead of System.out.printf() worked.

don't use printf, it's slow

Use the good old PrintWriter. Or just System.out.write (raw bytes), which is even faster.

awesome. Using the PrintWriter worked. Thanks guys. So silly of me. I had the PrintWriter in the template I copied to resolve the TLE, just didn't use it.
