ompetitive programming is built on hard work and integrity[user:monocode], but sometimes, those values are compromised. Recently, in Codeforces Round 975 (Div. 2), two participants, Abou_3yad and monocode, were caught submitting nearly identical code for the same problem, raising concerns of plagiarism. Both are new to the platform, yet their actions cast a shadow over fair competition.
Here are the suspicious submissions:
AhmedIbrahim24010's submission monocode's submission [](https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/2019/submission/283213538) approximately the same code structure but one of them changed the variable's names, what a genius! ** While struggling as a beginner is normal, copying solutions defeats the purpose of competitive programming.** ****
