Yeah, ZheNing hit on an interesting case here, and their very careful
problem description with full testcases helped immensely in finding
the issue.  I didn't spot it at first from the output, but being able
to run his examples made it relatively easy to track down -- and then
I noticed I could have figured out the same information from his
output if I had known to look.  Even if I didn't notice the output the
first time around, having the problem be discoverable from his program
output certainly made it easier to describe and explain the issue.
:-)
