The description of the problem says: "Your program must take into account the command \", which is used to write two dots above a vowel. For example, \"e means the symbol ë." But you don't really have to distinguish between vowels and consonants for this command.

I run out of ideas, trying to pass test #5. Does anyone can tell me how this test looks like?
Thank you,

My Accepted solution 8202681 for problem 1050 gives incorrect answer on my test (test contains command '\endinputany' in the middle of text).
Please add my test to test package.

     TEST:
There is no "q in this sentence. \par
"Talk child," said the unicorn.

\endinputany
She s\"aid, "\thinspace `Enough!', he said."
\endinput

     INCORRECT ANSWER:
There is no q in this sentence. \par
``Talk child,'' said the unicorn.

\endinputany

     CORRECT ANSWER:
There is no q in this sentence. \par
``Talk child,'' said the unicorn.

\endinputany
She s\"aid, ``\thinspace `Enough!', he said.''
\endinput

Hi
"Paragraph ends in the source text are marked either by at least one blank line, or a \par command or both."
What is the blank line? '\n'? Or some space symbol which ends with '\n'?

Memory limit test 1. C++.
using:
vector<string> str
str[i].erase()
str[i].insert()

using erace and insert it creats another string object. I know, so how can i insert '' or `` instead of " ?

Input:
abcd\"
\endinput

Output:
abcd\"
\endinput

Give me some tests or advices, please.

Input:

"Hello world

"Next paragraph" and this works " \par
last one
\endinput

Output:

Hello world

``Next paragraph'' and this works  \par
last one
\endinput

Help, please.

I tried to read data string by string and then by characters but in both cases I got Crash(access violation) on 1st test :(

1. \par marks end of paragraph, but \\par is not (it is command \\ followed by word `par').

2. Carefully calculate number of backslashes (\).
\\"" gives \\``'', but \\\"" gives \\\"

example:
\""\para\""

what's right output?

It is possible to get AC with a 10-lines program. Simply use regular expressions:

Q = "(?<!\\\\)\"" for " which is not preceded by \

".*?(?:\n\r?\n|\\\\par(?![A-Za-z])|$)" for paragraph (note \r)

For each paragraph you get with Scanner.findWithinHorizon, do replaceAll matching Q+"(.*?)"+Q with "``$1''" and then replaceFirst Q with an empty string.

Btw, the real TeX parsing is much more complicated, e.g., \\par would not end a paragraph.

I passed test 3 after replacing my "blank line" regexp "\n\n" with "\n\r?\n". Apparently "blank" (which used to mean "empty") here means empty or "\r".

Is there any good tests?

is sequence of two slash symbols is a command?
For example:
\\""
\endinput

What is right output?
\\" or not?

If you want ACC fast, don't use "super-extra-hiper-shmiper smart" solution. Very silly and small one works well(not very fast though).
