The conversation between human and AI assistant.
How is competitive programming different from real-life programming?
I see. And how would this be different in a real-life programming scenario?
In a real-life scenario, finding the shortest path in a graph could still be a useful problem to solve, but it would be approached in a different way. The solution would be tailored to fit the specific requirements of the software system being built, and factors such as scalability, maintainability, and security would also be considered.
