Saved (or Gone) in10 minutes........

hi guys,
Today was my first MGPT after leaving CDAC.This time around my program was not running well with few bugs.I however managed to find the inputs and their corresponding outputs for the problem.By now you have guessed that the story would be tat i created a set of if else and would have submitted the problem to clear the problem.But here is the twist ...one of my sir told me thathardcoding wont be allowed and dont know why i did the most unusual thing ....i let the time pass away without entering the last step that would assure me my MGPT. I dont know why i did that or why it happened to me that i didnt complete the problem.I felt so frustrated that i argued with my sirs like a foolish kid.However by the end of the day to my astonishment i feel like being saved..............Still wondering why??

I came to NCST with a desire to beat the beast (Parikshak).I nearly have done it by clearing 1 MGPT.And today was my chance to clear it completely.But rather i think i wont want it to do tamely.Perhaps my programming ethics would have not forgiven me if i had cleared my mgpt that way , god knows how long would that shame stayed on my mind .I felt a glimpse that shame already when i learnt about the solution to the problem.Even more i was ashamed when i learnt that the person i argued with was the one of the top coders.The whole MGPT was gone in front of my eyes in last 10 minutes,had it not been to those noble words from my mentor ,i would have proved to be a shame in eyes of my mentors and myself.I dont know wheter i would be able to clear the next MGPT .i dont know wheter i would tame the parikshak.But end of the day i feel to be"Saved in 10 minutes...."
