Osama Ben Laden What's wrong with output using "cout"? When I changed it on "printf", I got AC [2] // Задача 1047. Простые вычисления 20 фев 2002 17:10

I thought, that these 2 codes are equal:

cout.precision(2);
cout.setf(ios::showpoint || ios::fixed);
cout<<res<<'\n';

OR

printf("%0.2f",res);

Can anybody explain it me. Maybe, something wrong with GNU C++?

Algorist I had even a much BIGGER problem [1] // Задача 1047. Простые вычисления 20 фев 2002 17:54

Well, it does not work always :)) I do not know why, but the truth is
that on different PCs these do not work identically....... a BIG BUG

But I had even a bigger problem. I submitted a solution of problem
1176 (in fact, I submitted four different solutions over 30
times ;) ), but I always got TL exceeded. I always used cin/cout. I
changed cin to scanf() and cout to printf() and all was OK -> my
solution got AC, having in mind that
1. When using CIN/COUT it worked over the time limit i.e. more than 2
secs
2. When I changed them to scanf/printf i got AC and my program worked
0.9 secs............

So-> I advice you -> always use printf, scanf and all the C stuff :))
C++ input/output has lots of bugs, and as it seems, it si quite
slow.............

Osama Ben Laden Thanks!!! // Задача 1047. Простые вычисления 20 фев 2002 22:34
