Title: P0: Yandex slavary [2024-03-15 Thu] I was unable to solve Python contest in Yandex, to get a job. For 1 hour I was unable to understand why I get 'runtime error' (not other information). After I get rid of numpy library and tried every approach to input and output I was unable to reach 2 seconds speed with only Python stdlib. To reach such speed I should process string char-by-char and use low level output. #dailyreport #python #yandex
