this is the first problem i did
Nice job. I would recommend learning languages like C++ for competetive programming, since it's faster and supported by basically all coding competitions.
Keep in mind that using C++ for competitve programming without a template is kind of a pain. The CCC supports Python3, C++, Java and from my experience, Python can solve all problems (unless specified to use c++). I tried to write c++ code during the contest, and it becomes tedious because the syntax of the lang makes it hard to write algorithms from scratch. Then again, it comes down to personal preference. I can see why many people use c++ but in my experience, python gets the job done.
