D's formula looks with really poor properties and scared me at first.

Then I realized that this can be replaced with any random function.....

    See, it's legal as one can use any code that's published in public before the contest starts, also finding diameter is very trivial. But yeah they should have mentioned the above gfg link with their code but no worries as we got the source from where they used a code which was published before the contest started.

is G some kind of digit-dp, calculating how many integers satisfy the property is easy, but how to calculate the individual digit contribution to the total sum?

    you can store two values in $$$dp$$$ table $$$\text{(ways, sum)}$$$ and use $$$ways$$$ to calculate the contribution to the current placed digit.

Hello, Computer club MNNIT Allahabad, my team Endurance got selected for the finals, but the postponed time clashes with my Lab exam tomorrow.Also I think that many people would have classes and labs in the morning. So it would be very beneficial if you can plss shift the contest later in the day Or take it at night after the cf contest. Thank you.

    We apologize for this but Insomnia is part of our technical fest and today's schedule was clashing with some other important affairs so we had to shift it to tomorrow and cannot be further postponed due to the fest ending tomorrow.

If you do last minute change — can you at least shift to the weekend instead so it's convenient for everybody. Our team planned time for today's contest, it's not easy to adapt for the shift considering it's all on a workdays...
