Problem types

Alice is feeling bored in math class. So she gets an infinitely large sheet of graph paper and starts tiling it with squares and octagons, as shown below. The squares are unit high, the octagons are units high and units wide, and all the tiles' vertices are at integer lattice points. The origin point, , is at the bottom-left corner of a square tile.

When Alice finally finishes tiling the infinitely large sheet of paper, math class is still not over. So she decides to colour in tiles to make a single polygon with no holes. What are the polygon's vertices, in clockwise order?

#### Input Specification

The first line contains an integer , the number of coloured tiles.

The next lines each contain integers and , the coordinates of the -th coloured tile. If the tile is a square, these coordinates indicate its bottom-left corner. If it is an octagon, they indicate the bottom-left corner of its central square.

All tile coordinates are guaranteed to be valid, and the coloured tiles are guaranteed to form a single polygon with no holes.

#### Output Specification

On the first line, output , the number of vertices of the coloured polygon.

On the -th of the next lines, output the and coordinates of the -th vertex. The vertices should be outputted in clockwise order (in other words, if you imagine walking from one vertex to the next, the polygon should always be to your right). You must start with the vertex with the least coordinate, breaking ties by choosing the vertex with the least coordinate.

Could someone help me debug my code? Its here: https://pastebin.pl/view/dd1e1001

I'm getting the following error from visual studio: https://ibb.co/tYgLbxR

Due to my poor knowledge of c++, I'm not sure why. enlighten me. If anyone needs me to explain the code a bit more, my discord is *-*#0325.

Thanks!

in c++, pairs aren't hashable by default. unordered maps hash the keys, and since your key is a pair, it gives you an error. You can fix this by changing the unordered_map to a map, or creating your own hash for a pair. Other than that, your code is very close to being correct, there is one very small tweak you need to make to receive AC.

Thank you so much! That's good to know. I changed it to map (and then fixed another thing) and it worked.
