Hi fellow coders,
May Long challenge ended and we just got our new ratings. I got a mail stating that my ratings dropped as my code matched with someone else. I was shocked as this could never happen as I never cheated and neither I used any other IDE other than Codechef IDE so that there is no chance of my code leaking. And the problem is [LADDU][1]. For a problem as straightforward as this, there are several of other solutions I found are quite similar. I am deeply hurt because of this. Is this my fault that my solution is matched with someone else for a simple cakewalk problem like this? I am providing you with the solutions. Please share your opinion on this post.

Why these were not detected? Do you only consider result of MOSS? I can show some more solutions like these.
Also, I have submitted first so how can I cheat? Please @admin look into this and help me.
