Competitive Programming

Question

Can we start a thread where we all can share views and tips related to competitive programming. Maybe this thread will help everyone to get to know STL and other useful tips and tricks for CP.

Answer 1

So, this->thread = protip.thread essentially?

Answer 2

On that note.
Tip: look into
std::cin.clear();
is well.

Answer 3

A C++ thread as well

Answer 4

Okay...
Protip: Have a look at std::cin.ignore(). It will ignore a specific number of chars or until a specified char is entered. Very useful in console apps.

Answer 7

Sure, I am up for C++ tricks and tips

Answer 8

@Manual I love the very essence of being competitive. I mean the way it makes us exercise our mind to extremes. Working in teams and learning from others for a contest with restricted time is all I like about CP.

Answer 9

@Jamie yes. ☺

Answer 10

Can someone discuss about multidimensional vectors in C++?
