Question 5: What type of questions will I have to solve in this challenge?
The questions in this challenge are of the following types:

Programming Problems:
Write code in the online code editor that is provided with each problem and submit it.
You can make multiple submissions. The platform automatically considers the best submission.

Question 6: Are the programming questions restricted to specific languages?
The languages that you can write code in will be mentioned in the challenge details, if applicable.

Question 7: What will happen in case of there is an issue with my computer or Internet connection?
If there is an issue with your computer or your Internet connection, you will not lose your previously submitted answers. They will be saved on HackerEarth’s servers. You can log in again and continue coding from where you stopped.

However, the timer will continue running, which is why it is advised that you ensure that your computer/Internet connection is working properly before you begin the challenge.

Question 8: My code works in my local IDE, however, it throws compilation errors when I run it on the platform interface. Why does this happen?
Every problem has the following two buttons:

a. Compile & Run:
When you click Compile & Run, the is tested against the sample input and output.

This ensures that you are able to test your code against predefined sample test cases before you submit your code.

b. Submit:
When you click Submit, the code is checked extensively against internal test cases. The following parameters are considered while checking the code:

Time limit: The code should run within the stipulated time otherwise it will throw a Time Limit Exceeded (TLE) error.
Memory limit: The code should run within the give memory size otherwise it will throw a Memory Limit Exceeded (MLE) error.
Errors during runtime: Specific test cases check for Runtime Errors (RE) only.
Correct answer: If your answer is incorrect, then you will see the message Wrong Answer (WA) on the screen. This means that your program is not printing he correct answer. Ensure that your program conforms with the output format that is required.

Question 9: Is it possible to change my submission after I have submitted a task?
Yes, you can edit and submit the solution to a question (that you can view and edit) any number of times before the challenge-completion time window closes.

Note: Some tests have timed sections. After the time limit is reached, you will not be able to revisit questions in that section.
