Educational Codeforces Round 129 [Rated for Div. 2]
By awoo, history, 2 years ago, translation, In English

Hello Codeforces!

On May/23/2022 17:35 (Moscow time) Educational Codeforces Round 129 (Rated for Div. 2) will start.

Series of Educational Rounds continue being held as Harbour.Space University initiative! You can read the details about the cooperation between Harbour.Space University and Codeforces in the blog post.

This round will be rated for the participants with rating lower than 2100. It will be held on extended ICPC rules. The penalty for each incorrect submission until the submission with a full solution is 10 minutes. After the end of the contest you will have 12 hours to hack any solution you want. You will have access to copy any solution and test it locally.

You will be given 6 or 7 problems and 2 hours to solve them.

The problems were invented and prepared by Adilbek adedalic Dalabaev, Vladimir vovuh Petrov, Ivan BledDest Androsov, Maksim Neon Mescheryakov and me. Also huge thanks to Mike MikeMirzayanov Mirzayanov for great systems Polygon and Codeforces.

Good luck to all the participants!

      I mean there has been Cs with 2000 rating like robot collision from Edu round 109, so trying to generalize ratings of problems could get you stuck trying to solve a problem that is way harder than what you think.

    I think it's like around 1200. Question difficulties have increased significantly to account for rating inflation.

      Because of stupid mistakes like not opening correct array sizes or mistaking C for D,I lost 150+ points.

      I might have got top 100 if I didn't.

        I did a bfs, but only took the 10000 highest numbers after each step. Have no proof that this yields always the correct answer (although I have a strong feeling that it does), but for sure this won't time out. (And just now I noticed, that I forgot to erase duplicate numbers. Uh-Oh...) 158202121

        That was my problem the entire time! but after proofing by AC I think you can prove it this way: so because multiplication is commutative (i.e. 5*3 =3*5) then the order of the digits you use doesn't matter. How many numbers you can multiply by so that the result doesn't exceed 10^n? not that many as you are only using digits between 0 and 9

        Numbers which will increase x are from 2 to 9 in which prime numbers are 2,3,5,7.

        So x will eventually turn into x*( 2^a * 3^b * 5^c * 7^d ) after some number of operations.

        As we all know 2^63, 3^39, 5^27, 7^22 are all close to 10^19.

        So 64 * 40 * 28 * 23 = 1648640 are the number of different numbers that can be made.

        In this I have considered all the numbers which can be made using these combinations of prime to the power of some number. Which will not be the case in the real brute force implementation. It will close out at about 1e5 or so.

        There's your proof.

          Great! I think there is a tighter upper bound.

          If we simply see that (a + b + c + d) <= 64 (considering a = 64, b=c=d=0). So, the numbers possible is found from this formula — (N+R-1)C(R-1) i.e (64 + 4 - 1)C(4-1) which approximates to 47905.

        Well, this will require a lot of thinking and tracing, and honestly, I'm not very convinced but I would say that since I'm starting with one number for example 123 and I want to try to multiply it by 2 or 3, no matter what is the result they will all be divisible by 123 so the chance of duplicates is very high.

          no how does this matter? You can have so many numbers that are divisibl by 123 up to 10^19. it's \floor{10^19}/123>= 1e^16. I think it has to do with the fact that you only use digits and that you multiplication is commuitative1. __

      No this will never happen as each time you can at most increase the size by one. The problem with the greedy approach is that it might lead you to a number that has digits of low values, so it is the same problem with "good localy, bad globaly"

    first forget about the values, after some swaps you'll attain a permutation of the indices so any permutation that works for both a and b is good, let us sort a first and then check if we can sort b without ruining the first sort(only moving elements with the same value), this process produces a new permutation and what's left is to check it

    You can consider each $$$x$$$ separately. You can compress nodes connected by non-$$$x$$$ edges to get a new tree for each $$$x$$$. A pair of nodes $$$u, v$$$ has $$$x$$$ as a unique occurrence only if $$$u$$$ and $$$v$$$ belong to adjacent nodes of the new tree of $$$x$$$.

    To build the tree efficiently, iterate through all original tree nodes in decreasing order of depth and simultaneously build all the new trees. When you encounter a node $$$u$$$ for which the edge connecting it and its parent has value $$$x$$$, search for all components of $$$x$$$ already existing within the subtree of $$$u$$$, and join them to get a new component of $$$x$$$.

    Even if you multiply by 2 everytime you will reach n digits extremely fast. This along with the fact that you can multiply by only 8 distinct number assures that the number of states transitions are actually quite small.

      no it does not. If you can multiply 8 distinct digits to get 8 distinct products, that has a very high upper bound. The map solutions have passed as the number of "distinct" numbers encountered, the "X"s are limited. That is different from what you meant to say.

      Edit: Explanation below makes more sense.

        You're right. I believe the 8 numbers fact is more prominent in a way that it limits the number of transitions from one state greatly.

Trash E.

It only takes me 5 minutes to manage out a way to solve it using something like Matrix multiplication and Segment Tree or binary lifting.

But there are TOO MANY GOD DAMN DETAILS that I failed to accept it before the contest ends.

I hope there will be more brain-consuming problems (maybe greedy or constructive ? ) instead of such complex and meaningless ones.

    You need to use memoization to avoid visiting the same values multiple times (which can happen).

      yes, it should use memoization, so BFS + memoization, not DFS + memoization.

          oh! I get AC with DFS + memoization 158229644, but I think BFS is more better, because if DFS always meets bad answer firstly, then memoization does't work.

            Well, as I say, I used memoizaton and haven't been hacked yet. Why do you think it doesn't work?

            I simply called a 'bad' answer very big (1e9) and then said if my final answer was >= 1e9, then output -1.

      Hi @jimm89. I tried DFS too. Got TLE. Used memoization and it worked. Its kinda weird that you need memoization for this. I initially thought the probability that you will encounter a value you encountered before is so low. I thought the overhead for using a map would harm more than it will help but it is the other way around :-) I was just curious if I will need memoization for BFS as well.

        I expect you would not need memoization for BFS.

        I saw that tourist submitted a DFS solution with no memoization, but with sufficient pruning so as not to TLE. I suspect he knew it would not TLE, but did also wonder whether that was due to instinct from vast experience or whether there was some underlying (very fast) deeper thought process. Effectively the solution tries 'higher digit' paths first and then also eliminates any path which could be longer than the current best answer.

        For that reason, I am confident that BFS is fine without memoization, since you will only visit paths shorter than or equal to the best answer.

    The point of D is to be a problem on implicit BFS/DFS/dynamic programming where it's not so obvious (but easy to prove) that the solution is fast enough. I don't think that your claim "they don't dare to use such a stupid method" is correct; proving that it works is not difficult.

      It is true that the dfs solution can be proved to be fast enough. However, this is a programming contest, not a math contest. Most people who passed this problem during contest didn't think about what the complexity will be, they just tried dfs and it worked. The aim of the problem is to separate people who can come with a method and who can't, not "Here is an easy way to solve the problem. Can you prove it?" This way it will be more like a math problem. The proving part is important but that's not something that should be asked in contest.

        You say "Here is an easy way to solve the problem" as if it's written in the problem statement that you should use DFS/BFS/something other there. I agree that this problem is on the easy side for ER D, but I don't think it's C level.

        I don't see anything wrong with some participants guessing that the method works without any actual proof. This is fairly common even on high-level contests. As long as the proof doesn't take five full pages of formulas (I mean, it's definitely possible to come up with the proof in a short period of time), it should be fine, in my opinion.

      This shows another problem: you can get accepted using whatever approach you want as long as you dare try the easiest dfs.

      So, I think his claim "they don't dare to use such a stupid method" is totally correct since I don't think a lot of people actually proved it. The people who solved it are probably just like "okay, let's try dfs. Test 19 42 and the answer came out immediately so submit!"

      This way of thinking is definitely not good for ER D.

Kind of sad that $$$O(N (\log{N})^2)$$$ approaches passed in F.

I initially had an interesting $$$O(N^2 \log{N})$$$ solution where I run a re-rooting DP on each edge weight separately, to calculate contributions of that edge weight (a range sum data structure was used for this, thus the log factor). I sped this to $$$O(N \log{N})$$$ by using the DFS times for each node and simulating the DFSs for each edge weight by just looping along occurrences of each edge weight in the DFS order, using only $$$O(\text{occ}(x) \log{N})$$$ for each weight $$$x$$$, where $$$\text{occ}(x)$$$ is the number of occurrences of $$$x$$$.

Edit to add:

Since people seem confused, I will explain my solution in some more detail. Firstly the $$$O(N^2 \log{N})$$$ idea. First root the tree arbitrarily. Now, we find the contribution for each edge weight separately. I will describe how to calculate the contribution of edge with weight $$$x$$$.

Notation:

$$$\text{comp}(u, x)$$$ is the size of connected component of if only edges with weight not equal to $$$x$$$ are considered, $$$\text{sz}(u)$$$ is the size of subtree of $$$u$$$, $$$\text{par}(u)$$$ is the parent of node $$$u$$$, $$$\text{anc}(u)$$$ is the set of proper ancestors of $$$u$$$, $$$\text{sub}(u)$$$ is the set of nodes in subtree of $$$u$$$.

Define $$$\text{dp1}[u] = \text{comp}(u, x)$$$ if the parent edge of $$$u$$$ has weight $$$x$$$ and $$$0$$$ otherwise. Similarly, define $$$\text{dp2}[u] = \text{comp}(\text{par}(u), x)$$$ if the parent edge of $$$u$$$ has weight $$$x$$$ and $$$0$$$ otherwise.

How to compute $$$\text{dp1}[u]$$$? Some careful thought yields:

$$$ \text{dp1}[u] = \text{sz}(u) - \sum_{v \in \text{sub}(u), v \neq u} \text{dp1}[v] $$$

and

$$$ \text{dp2}[u] = n - \text{sz}(u) - \sum_{v \in \text{anc}(u)} \text{dp2}[v] - \sum_{v \notin \text{anc}(u), v \notin \text{sub}(u)} \text{dp1}[v] $$$

With these expressions, $$$\text{dp1}[u]$$$ can simply be computed with DFS and a range sum data structure (on the Euler tour of the tree). After computing all values of $$$\text{dp1}$$$, the $$$\text{dp2}$$$ values can be computed with DFS and a range sum data structure, noting that $$$dp2$$$ value of a node $$$u$$$ will be used when $$$u$$$ is an ancestor and $$$dp1$$$ otherwise. So, these values can be switched in the range sum data structure during DFS.

Contribution of weight $$$x$$$ is simply $$$\sum \text{dp1}[u] \cdot \text{dp2}[u]$$$.

How to make this $$$O(N \log{N})$$$? Well, since only particular $$$dp$$$ values are ever non-zero for a weight $$$x$$$, we can simulate the entire process by just looping over the positions of these nodes in the DFS order.

Code: 158206764

    I have $$$O(n)$$$ solution of F

    For each value of $$$w$$$ from 1 to $$$n$$$, break all edges which have weight $$$w$$$. The tree will break into connected components. Now for each pair of "adjacent" connected components(i.e. components which were connected by the broken edge) you need the number of paths starting from one component and going to other. If we store everything in dfs order, then this can be accomplished in $$$O(n)$$$. It is not that painful but my implementation is a bit messy.

Problem D was so frustrating. Still can't figure out why DFS would work?

      But why did it work? From what I can think of, we have 10 different possible states to go from each number. Talking in terms of Tree DS, we have a rooted tree of depth ~20 and each node has 10 children. This leaves us with around 10^20 leaf nodes.

      Is that even possible to solve?

      Is there any special structure to the problem which is not considered in my analysis?

        I donot know how to prove it but it got ac. I think some values will repeat in sequence so you do not need to process them, and hence the solution will pass in time. I tried to test it, at max only "4833" values were inside my queue when it reached level 19.

        Yes -- it looks like you are keeping track of what digits appear in a single current number and then picking a digit to multiply by based on what maximizes the next number.

        What I am saying is that this decision of taking the largest of the results is not globally optimal.

I think I solved E during contest but was lazy to implement (though might TLE in theory). Tell me what you think.

I looked at the doors as a layered graph. Each layer has 2 nodes (doors), and there are only edges between nodes of adjacent layers (the distance in the matrix between the doors of consecutive layers). So in total there are 4 edges between 2 layers.

Now for the preprocessing, I want to calculate the distance between the doors of special layers (0 with 300, 300 with 600, 600 with 900). I'm using 300 but actually I would take sqrt(10**5).

This is a simple DP such that in the end each node in each layer has a pair (d1,d2), where d1 is the distance from the first node (corresponding to top door) in the previous special layer, and d2 is the distance from the second node (corr. to right door) in the previous special layer.

Observe there is never any need to travel back and forth between layers. Only one direction.

So now, assume I get a query (x1,y1), (x2,y2). Suppose the first is in layer i, and the second in layer j. All I need is to calculate the distance from x1,y1 to both doors in layer i, then. Then use my preprocessing to calculate the distance from doors of layer i to both doors of layer j (4 distances), and then calculate the distance from both doors of layer j to (x2,y2).

This could take up to 900 operations per query (300 for layer i to special naively, 300 for special to special using preprocessing, and 300 for special to j naively). But notice that if you do the preprocessing in both directions, this can be done in 302 operations per query (the distance to the next/previous special layer can be done in one operation).

Of course this isn't really 302, but more like 302 * 4? (because every calculation I consider 2-4 different options?). So it might be TLE, but it might just work. I'll probably try to implement later and see ^_^

    Yes, it is called SQRT-decomposition and should work with $$$10^5$$$, but as you noticed, it depends on realization.

    It's better to make some const $$$X = 300$$$ and use this value for pre-calculating, calculating an answer. Then you will be able to play with this number to get the best result (usually it's less than $$$\sqrt{N}$$$, about 250).

    P.S. I think $$$6s$$$ time limit was done specially to pass such solutions.

For D why a DFS with memoization works? From any starting number x you just multiply it with {2, ..., 9}, and there are only 4 prime numbers in that set: 2, 3, 5, 7.

That means you actually just multiply x with those four prime numbers and in the worst case you start from 1 and use 64 multiplications with 2. But some of those 64 multiplications can be 3, 5, 7 as well. So that is really at most 64^4 (imagine you divide 64 positions into four segments for 2, 3, 5, 7). The real number will be much smaller because for 3, 5, 7 you probably don't need 64 multiplications.

I solved problem D with a dp approach. https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1681/submission/158204160 dp[size of number][mask][distance from the original X] = max number with this mask.

I have a mask of all of the digits that are present in the number.

So if I have a number 1434, digits 1 3 4 are present and current mask is equal to 2^1 + 2^4 + 2^3 = 26

I used an assumption that if we consider all of the numbers with the same size and mask, we should always pick the biggest one. I am not sure about this assumption, I was not able to prove that is really always profitable to always pick the biggest number.

Also me: solve ABCD in the first 26 minutes today and run away to work because I didn't have time for this shit from the very beginning. Predicted rating +203

I'm stable like a stablecoin

    Interesting. Perhaps you should always do contests before your work, so you can push yourself to solve problems very fast and then you can run away to work :)

    (of course, just kidding)

Question D, if you use dfs to solve this problem, pay attention to this, if the front is 2 and the back is 4, the number of steps *2*2 will be more, but *4 cannot enter because it has already accessed this number

Nice tests on E without int overflow, did some hacks with it.

Can somebody please explain C ?? also, i wasn't able to solve 'column swapping' in Round #794 (div1 + div2) , these are similar, right?? i think just saving the swapped elements in arr / vector was the difference.

I really amazed about problem D! how a single bfs with visit array make this code accepted without TLE, what is the time complexity of the previous code? or there is a failing test case which make it TLE?

I think D problem in this round is most hacked problem I have ever seen till now. It has changed so many rankings up and down. As I have also hacked 7 submission of D problem.

    I'm not sure if my assumption is correct, but if the new test cases will be added to the original ones then the answer is no because problem D is still showing 66 test cases, which is the number of the original test cases.

      why you think new test cases won't included and no re-run the system test again.

        What I meant is that if the new test cases will be added to the original ones this means that we will have a number > 66 test cases for problem D and I can still see that problem D has 66 test cases, and if I'm not mistaken then they didn't run the system test yet.

      Yeah it was late on previous contest but I didn't check the graph on those contest.

      Since it displayed as "unrated" on my graph so I was wondering if some new announcement was made.

MikeMirzayanov awoo submission 158171922 and submission 158186561 are nearly same and its a pure co-incidence neither i know the person nor i used any online IDE and question was pretty brute force so its obvious to have same kind of solution and further more I have no history of such offence and i personally hate cheaters . This kind of things demotivates a lot please look into the matter.

I got my ans similar of C to somewhat 100 people; tell me it isn't possible that too many people do the question with the same approach? IDK why my answers are being skipped. I did not use an online IDE or something that would leak my code. It's too bad; after 2 hrs of brainstorming, you just skipped my question, with no-fault. It is a correct ans, and that's why so many people have the same approach. awoo MikeMirzayanov adedalic BledDest

Codeforces is considering me responsible for the mistake that I have never made.Actually I was sitting in a public library while competing in this round.I guess someone has copied my solutions by continously peeping into my laptop without informing me. I have not indulged myself in any such activities and I always beleive in right conduct.For reference you can check my submission timings and code. I beleive codeforces won't do injustice to me.

awoo MikeMirzayanov Yestarday, I recieved a letter from Codeforces System in which it was written that my solutuion 158183564 is similar to Boboge's solution 158175797. We weren't communicating with each other. It's just an coincidence. Both of us used simple implementation of classic bubble sort and well-known C++ STL functions. Please, review your verdict P.S. I didn't use any online IDE, just CLion.
