Hello guys!
In yesterday's round Codeforces Round 617 (Div. 3), in question 1296C - Очередной идущий робот, I submitted this solution using map which took 61ms to pass: 70273184. Today, I thought of submitting the same solution using unordered map, which I later found out doesn't have a hash function for pairs, so I copied the hash function from GeeksForGeeks and then submitted the solution which took 187ms to pass: 70355416.
Can somebody tell me why is unordered map working slower than map for this problem ?
Thanks.

That hash function may not be very good. It will have some collisions: often (x+1,y) and (x,y+1) will have same hashes. Try different hash functions.
It's just due to weak hash function.Your solution using another hash function which i usually use for pairs when max value of my pair is <= 2e9 took just 46ms.
