In this HackerEarth Mark, The Answer problem solution Our friend Monk has an exam that has quite weird rules. Each question has a difficulty level in the form of an Integer. Now, Monk can only solve the problems that have difficulty levels less than X . Now the rules are-

A score of the student is equal to the maximum number of answers he/she has attempted without skipping a question.
The student is allowed to skip just “one” question that will not be counted in the continuity of the questions.

#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    int n,d;
    cin>>n>>d;
    
    bool flag=false;
    int ans=0;
    vector<int> vec(n);
    for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
        cin>>vec[i];
    for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
    {
        if(vec[i]>d)
        {
            if(flag==false)
            {
                flag=true;
                continue;
            }
            else
            {
                break;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            ans++;
        }
    }
    cout<<ans<<endl;
    return 0;
}

Second solution

n,d = map(int,raw_input().split(' '))
assert(n >= 1 and n <= 10**5 and d >= 1 and d <= 10**9)
a = map(int,raw_input().split(' '))
for i in range(0,n):
    assert(a[i] >= 1 and a[i] <= 10**9)
prev = 0
curr = 0
i = 0
while i < n and a[i] <= d:
    prev+=1
    i+=1
i+=1
while i < n and a[i] <= d:
    curr+=1
    i+=1
print prev+curr
