anish is an unknown quantity at this point
no need for calculus.

Lets say you have all the bins in your zone and you have 2 robots on the platform.

lets let x equal stack height.
Now, scoring is the highest stack height * number of bins not in the stack. If you have all 45 bins, thats 45-x (the bins in the heighest stack). Additionaly, 50 for both robots on the platform.

x(45-x) + 50 = y

that expands to:

y = -x^2 + 45x + 50
