Info1Cup 2024
By stefdasca, history, 10 months ago, In English

Info1Cup, the first junior olympiad of 2024 is starting today with its competition days taking place tomorrow and on sunday.

I invite you all to write the codeforces handles of the participants and maybe even predict potential winners or high performers.

After the contest days, let's also discuss the problems here.

Good luck to all participants.

UPD1: The first day should end anytime from now, so let's discuss ideas for the problems that were given.

UPD2: The second day should end anytime from now, so let's discuss ideas for the problems that were given.

Congratulations to everyone and especially to the winners.

Here are the results: Link

    Here is how I did it. First, the $$$O(n^2)$$$ solution: the contribution of $$$a_i$$$ to the sum will be $$$(\sum_{j=0}^i (a_i \oplus j)^p) \cdot (n - i)$$$.

    To optimize to $$$O(n log n)$$$, I defined $$$f(l, len, x)$$$ to be $$$\sum_{i=l}^{l+len} (x \oplus i)^p$$$. The answer will be sum of $$$f(0, i, a_i) \cdot (n - i)$$$. Now to calculate it:

    First precalculate something like $$$pref_i=0^p+1^p+...+i^p$$$. Say the highest bit of $$$len$$$ is $$$B=2^b$$$. If $$$B \gt x$$$, then we will be able to get all numbers smaller than $$$B - 1$$$, which is $$$pref_{l + B - 1} - pref_{l - 1}$$$. After that we recurse and add $$$f(l + B, len - B, x)$$$.

    Now for when $$$B \le x$$$. Let's say $$$y$$$ is equal to the number formed from only the last $$$b$$$ bits of $$$x$$$.

    • If we choose to have bit $$$b$$$ turned off, then we will be able to get all numbers smaller than $$$B-1$$$, but offset by $$$x-y$$$, so $$$pref_{x-y + l + B} - pref_{x-y+l-1}$$$.
    • If bit $$$b$$$ is turned on, then we add $$$f(l + x-y, len - B, y)$$$ (you can only influence $$$y$$$, and the bits in $$$x-y$$$ are fixed).

    Each time you recurse you remove the highest bit of $$$len$$$. So it will be $$$O(log n)$$$ at most.
