Doubt for the question here:

https://leetcode.com/problems/rotting-oranges/description/

How I initialized my queue: queue<tuple<int, int, int>> q;

WA :

while(!q.empty()) {
            auto [x, y, curr] = q.front(); q.pop();
            steps = max(steps, curr);
            for(int i = 0; i < 4; ++i) {
                int X = x+dx[i], Y = y+dy[i];
                if(X >= 0 && X < N && Y >= 0 && Y < M && grid[X][Y] == 1 && vis[X][Y] != 2) {
                    q.push({X, Y, curr+1});
                    vis[X][Y] = 2;
                }
            }
        }

AC :

while(!q.empty()) {
            int x, y, curr; tie(x, y, curr) = q.front(); q.pop();
            steps = max(steps, curr);
            for(int i = 0; i < 4; ++i) {
                int X = x+dx[i], Y = y+dy[i];
                if(X >= 0 && X < N && Y >= 0 && Y < M && grid[X][Y] == 1 && vis[X][Y] != 2) {
                    q.push({X, Y, curr+1});
                    vis[X][Y] = 2;
                }
            }
        }

The WA one passes all but one testcase, which is:

grid = [[0,0,0,0],[0,1,1,2],[1,1,1,0],[1,1,1,2],[2,0,1,1],[2,1,2,1],[1,2,0,1],[2,2,1,2],[2,1,1,0],[1,0,2,2]];

This is the first time I am experiencing this. What is the reason behind this? Thank you

TLE CODE:

https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1886/submission/239483379

Accepted Code:

https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1886/submission/239483485

Is it because of

ans*=i;ans%md
ans=(ans*i)%md

? If So can anyone explain the reason why one gives TLE but other is fine?

So I was doing this question from the Educational round 85 here: https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1334/problem/C

And after a few attempts this is the code that got TLE in 3rd test: https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1334/submission/209278732

However after adding the lines:

import sys
input = sys.stdin.buffer.readline

The same code got accepted and was pretty quick. https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1334/submission/209278848

This made me wonder, are there any more things I can add to my Python code to make it run faster? Any answers or even links would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

So randomly found this profile in both codeforces and leetcode. Solved all questions in a few days with like 1000 submissions a day. The profile is : https://mirror.codeforces.com/profile/chappy1 https://leetcode.com/chappy1/
