The problem was in errors from the calculations, more accurate would give a better result.

dont use math.round

then ur limited by the factor you multiply by just printf

much better and fast i think (well not sure but the code itself but typing it ya it is xD)

there is some problem with the question 1, i think it was the first input or something; 0 50
should output 0, which im sure quite a lot of us did... and got marked wrong :roll: strange

The error is our fault not yours. The 4th test case for problem 1 should have been 221 and not 220. We apprently rounded down rather then up.

Also please note that the 2nd submmsion will not have the test cases in the same order so it could show up as any one of the four test cases.

I will make an offical news posting about this on the dwite site tomore.
