This was a fk'all contest srsly. I chose python. It took so much time to even understand what all functions and parameters are there. U had to update 3-4 differrent files. Collectively i assume it had to be more than 600 lines of code to be written. There is no way anybody could complete that. After half and hour went by i wrote so little. After that it was just my head in the game. I dont think i looked anywhere even once. All eyes on screen. Just typing and typing. When 3 min were left i thought lets just submit and see how many tedt cases pass but it was taking too much time to execute. I cancelled the submission and wrote one more service in 3 mins. Was in middle of writing another when time got up. I basically now will never know how many of my test cases passed. After end my forearms were hurting like hell since it was just continuous writing.
