Hi, Pablo and team, For non-interactive problems, there are already sample input/output in the problem text itself.
How about having this same sample input added as the first visible test case? This way, if this test passes and the actual visible test case doesn't, clearly the issue is no longer precision, output format, case sensitivity, trailing spaces... This sample can be worth 1 point. Programs that printf the sample output as-is should pass this test case, but nobody will submit that unless they have given up on solving the real problem because it will eventually incur the 4 minute penalty. Not sure how to extend this idea for interactive problems though. Thoughts?
