Hello,

I have written code from the uva problem located
here<http://uva.onlinejudge.org/index.php?option=com_onlinejudge&Itemid=8&page=show_problem&category=24&problem=47&mosmsg=Submission+received+with+ID+8619259>.
 Basically, its a longest common substring problem.  It works fine on my
computer, but I get a runtime error on UVA.  However, I don't think it is an
index out of bounds error or a case that I am not seeing.  First here is the
code:

#include <stdio.h>

int solve (int a[20], int aa, int b[20], int bb, int length);

int main(){

        int n;
        scanf("%d",&n);

        int a[20],i, b[20][20],length=0,read;
        for (i=0; i < n;i++){
                scanf("%d",&read);
                a[read-1]=i;
        }
        while(scanf("%d",&read)!=EOF){
                b[length][read-1]=0;
                for(i=1;i<n;i++){
                        scanf("%d",&read);
                        b[length][read-1]=i;
                }
                length++;
        }
        for (i=0;i<length;i++)
                printf("%d\n",solve(a,0,b[i],0,n));
        return 0;
}
int solve (int a[20], int aa, int b[20], int bb, int length){
        int max=0;

        if(aa>=length||bb>=length)
                return 0;

        int l=solve(a,aa+1,b,bb,length);
        int r=solve(a,aa,b,bb+1,length);

        max=max>l?max:l;
        max=max>r?max:r;

        if(a[aa]==b[bb])
                max++;

        return max;
}

Through commenting sections out, I found that the problem comes when at the
call to solve(a,0,b[i],0,n). just to make sure, I put return values in the
function solve and before the call to solve (separately) with a wrong answer
result (no runtime error).  I also changed the index from b[i] to b[0] just
to make sure no out of bounds error was occurring, and I still got the
runtime error.    Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks so much for the help,

Eric
