HackerEarth Rolling Balls problem solution

In this HackerEarth Rolling Balls problem solution There is a segment of length L - 1 meters, and there are L positions on it, numbered 1,2,...,L, equally spaced by 1 meter apart each, in the given order. There are n balls on it, at positions s1,s2,...,sn (si < si+1). Each ball is either rolling to the left of to the right at the speed of 1 meter/second. Whenever two balls hit each other, both of them change direction instantly but keep the same speed. A ball also changes direction when it reaches one of the ends of the segment (position 1 or L). You are given q queries, each one gives you two numbers ti and pi, and you should output the position of the pi-th ball after ti second.
