I looked over a bunch of the top ranking solutions on the leaderboard for Alien Languages and over 90% of the solutions that ranked 1 used the integer 20 in their loops. for example, username test123test123 used---------------------------------------------

for (int k = 0; k <= i and k <= 20; k ++)

username damian_straszak used-----------------------------------------

for(int i=0;i<20;i++)

Khongor used-------------------------------------------------------------------

for (int i = 1; i <= 20; i++)

define MATRIXN 20

for (int i = 0; i < MATRIXN; i++)

Where did this number come from? Did it come from some type of algorithm? I saw so many of the top scored codes use this and I am baffled at how they came up with the use of the number 20. I have looked over and over this problem and I don't understand how they came up with the use of 20. I read the editorial done by megaterik on the hackerrank blog on how they came up with their solution (which they choice to do in Java, while I used C++) but yet they also used 20 and never mentioned why they used 20 in the editorial. I would love to know how they came up with the use of the number 20 for their solution.
