Dear Mike Mirzayanov and the Codeforces Team,
I hope you are doing well.
I am writing to appeal the plagiarism flag placed on my submission 321479342 for Problem 2114D during Codeforces Round 1027 (Div. 3). I was recently notified that my solution significantly coincided with submissions from users Dreamer1103, abhinav290305, and Sunny2139. I want to firmly and respectfully state that I am not guilty of any form of cheating or collaboration.
I wrote my solution completely on my own, based on my understanding of the problem. I did not communicate with anyone or share my code. I also did not use any public online IDEs like ideone.com or other platforms where my code might have been accidentally exposed.
I understand and respect the Codeforces policy that even unintentional leaks can be considered violations. However, in this case, I have no knowledge of how my code could have matched with others. The logic I used is standard and might have led to similarity due to the straightforward nature of the problem, which many participants could have independently arrived at.
I kindly request you to review my case. If needed, I am more than willing to explain my code, share my approach, or answer any questions to clarify my understanding of the problem.
I deeply value the integrity of the Codeforces platform and competitive programming as a whole. I have always strived to participate honestly, and I hope you will consider this appeal fairly.
Thank you for your time and understanding.
