Contest Rules:

Program delivery uses standard I/O (stdin/stdout, no file operation required). The highest score of the previous submissions is the score of the problem. The time of submitting the program with the highest score for the first time is the time of the problem. After submitting the program, the system will quickly evaluate and feedback the evaluation score. The total score takes the highest score in previous evaluations as the final score, and the last program submission time that achieved the highest score for the first time as the total score.

This ranking is the joint ranking of players from all over the world. When players have the same ranking results and scores, those with less time will be the top.

Highlights of the 5th Turing Cup Tournament

• High Contest Quality: The contest problems will be set up by grandmasters in competitive programming like ICPC world finalists, IOI medalist and top competitive programming winners in China's national competitions.
