HW 2: WRONG execution time on Q2A

Question

When I run the tests on my computer it takes 6 seconds but now that I have uploaded it on q2a it says 9 seconds. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?

Answer 1

My guess is that execution time depends on the speed of the CPU that processes your program. Your computer is probably faster than the VM that does the tests on q2a, hence the discrepancy

alright thanks!

Answer 2

Computer is faster than virtual machine.
