1) As your solutions are tested by an automated judge, just print what is required. Do not print statements like "Enter a number", "The answer is" etc.,

2) SPOJ's judge is case sensitive.

3) Always have a look at the input constraints and time constraints. Check your array size and take care of overflows.

4) If you get a compilation error, click on the error to know what error you made. If your code compiles on ideone.com, it will compile here as well. Erase TURBOC.
