PROGRAM EXPLANATION

Algorithm and explanation

  1. Read the sample input and convert it into the values required for read two integers.
  2. Apply input() and map() to compute the required result.
  3. Display the result for read two integers and compare it with the documented sample output.

This example of read two integers computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates input(), map(), and Unpacking and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST

Common mistakes

Check this

For read two integers, keep the data shape and value types consistent with input().

Check this

Apply input() in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.

Check this

Enter values in the documented order and convert text input to the required numeric type.

Try it yourself

Practice: Run the program with the sample input, predict its output, and then test one boundary case of your own.
