Sites or 'contests' that have the same time limit for Python as for C, especially when the limit does not allow reasonable programs to run so you can even find out if they are correct, are stupidly brain-dead. Ignore them. Python is a great language for prototyping and experimenting with alternate algorithms. Rules that effectively prevent that are, well, you pick the adjective. Any such site that wanted to make even a pretense of fairness would provide Cython for converting augmented Python programs to C and thence compiled just like C programs. -- Terry Jan Reedy
