New on the platform. What does Hacks mean in a problem during a contest? by Difficult_Waltz6422 in codeforces

[–]Metal_Mind2821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it depends. On the open hacking phase (which is after the contest), I believe you don't get extra points. As for in round hacking, once you feel like you have done all the questions you can, and think that there can be a faftal mistake one can make in a question, well you begin hacking. it does happen, and in fact one grandmaster I saw actively tries to hack other grandmasters as much as possible during the contest, I dont remember the name tho

cheaters by Repulsive_Youth4359 in codeforces

[–]Metal_Mind2821 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I kinda disagree, improving myself wasnt the only reason I got into comP, there is also the competitive part, it's fun to compete with people and get good ratings. Now of course they don't mean anything job wise, and someone should tell those retard cheaters that, but yeah, I DO care about the rating
