I wrote some code for a contest in python. The test case limit is 1 <= n <= 10^9.
n=input("")
sum=0
for i in range(0,n):
s=input("")
sum=sum^s
print sum
It shows an error of time limit exceeded, but when I did the same in C, it worked fine. My C code is:
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
long long int a;
int ex=0,n;
scanf("%d",&n);
for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
{
scanf("%lld",&a);
ex=ex^a;
}
printf("%d\n",ex);
return 0;
}
Can someone explain this difference?
Python is a very simple and powerful language, but it is slow as compared to C language for a variety of reasons like: 1.It is dynamically typed 2.It is interpreted rather than compiled 3.Some of its memory access models are inefficient.
So some of the Python programs may be as slow as 20 times than a similar C program.
