Bob |
Why does my program output 1000 for the sum of -1 and 10000, but outputs 9999 at home? |

Why would the problem be worth 15 points if you could do it in about 10 lines? |

Ah yes, I see why now. The slow solutions involve padding the shorter string with zeroes on the front until it is as long as the longer string. When you add a character to the beginning of a string, a... |

there at least 2 ways to do this problem, some people coded the fast way, and some people coded the slow way. |

It's weird how there's a big gap in the solution times. It's either faster that 0.1 seconds, or slower than 1.5 seconds... |

All the accepted answers were done in C++ |

Integers don't have to be positive ;) Also you seem to have a limit of 255 - but as I said above the strings might be up to 100,000 characters long. (I know this won't work for Pascal strings; you ha... |
