Problem C – Code Inception

In each subproblem of this task you are given a piece of code. Ultimately, the code produces (somehow, somewhen) a single readable English word.

Problem speciﬁcation

Your only goal: recover the word.

And remember: you may need to go deeper.

Input speciﬁcation

For each subproblem, you are given two ﬁles, each containing the same program, written in a diﬀerent language. (One is in C++, the other in Python3. We did our best to make the programs as similar to each other as possible.) Each program produces the same single English word.

Diﬃculty is subjective. You may ﬁnd subproblem C2 easier to solve than C1. But solving C1 is still worth 1 point and solving C2 is worth 2, just as in the other tasks.

Output speciﬁcation

Submit a text ﬁle containing the recovered word, in UPPERCASE.

Example

input

for x in "olleh"[::-1]:
    print(x)

------------------------------

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
std::string s = "olleh";
int main() {
    for (auto c=s.rbegin();
         c!=s.rend();
         ++c)
            std::cout << *c;
}

output

HELLO

Note that the answer is given in uppercase.
