How Can we register for this contest. Don't mind if my question is dumb.I am just new to these type of blog contests. Please answer.
You dont need to register for the contest held on codechef platform, just go to contest page and select your division and after that you will see the problems and if you attempted any of the problem then you be considered as a participant for that particular contest otherwise not.
Can anyone please link the copied problem? I remember a div3 problem from Codeforces with the same statement, but I think it asked a different thing, so it must be a different one I guess.
When I saw that problem during the long challenge, I thought maybe I have seen this problem somewhere else as well. Upon googling a bit I found it link. And yes step 2 in this version is different than that of the copied problem, still don't know why my code for the original problem still worked for the copied version.
Did the Codechef problem also ask whether the array could be sorted? Or did it give the final array and asked if it could come from a sorted initial array? I can't remember.
whether the array could be sorted.
well, what was the name of that problem in Long Contest?
