This is for the problem “Lead Game”.

I’m sure my error is a sneaky testcase, a situation I don’t expect. Can someone tell me what is wrong with my code? And also, if there is any way to improve it? Thanks. This is python BTW.

highScore = 0
winner = 0
lead = 0
n = int(input())
for x in range(n):
    t1,t2 = list(map(int,input("").split()))
    if t1 > t2:
        lead = t1-t2
        if lead > highScore:
            highScore = lead
            winner = 1
    elif t2 > t1:
        lead = t2-t1
        if lead > highScore:
            highScore = lead
            winner = 2
print(str(winner) + " " + str(highScore))
2

They are actually talking about lead upto that round ie leadx=totalScore1Roundx-totalScore2Roundx.
