myname = input()
agent = int(input())
other = list(input().split())
other.append(myname)
other.sort()

people = len(other)
process = people/agent + .5
process = int(round(process))
time = 0

for i in range(0,people,process):
if myname in other[i:i+process]:
time += 20
break
else :
time += 20

print(time)

Hi Farrel Baskara

The first part of your code seems correct. Not sure what the `process` is meant to represent though. I'm guessing it's a stepping value of some sort, since you have it in the for loop. If that's the case, then you don't need to calculate it - you can just use `agent`.

So if I understand your loop logic correctly, it'll work if you just use `agent` in place of `process`. You can also just use one update of `time` in the beginning of the loop, since it executes in both case of the if-else. Like this:

for i in range(0, people, agent):
time += 20
if myname in other[i:i+agent]:
break

Hope this helps.
