To answer the question, no, code style doesn't matter at all. But as Hassan pointed out, we usually have all of that ready to-go, some may paste it to the new file, or maybe using some sort of tool to create the initial template, but in programming contests is usually more important to optimize the time spent coding than having a well structured, easy to read and maintain code. Hope it helps, Carlos Guía
