do better next time, everything is not about maths always.

Felt like a codechef contest , will have to think twice before giving a contest authored by you guys.

What was even mathy about it? I've never seen such non-math problems in my life. To be fair, I did not look at E or F.

    When people don't solve a problem in a contest and it has fancy LaTeX they immediately think that it is math...

    I mean B is mathy for sure, and i guess they see A as mathy as well. I didn't solve D, but as far I understand I don't think it's a math problem

      I feel like at least 40% of people have seen the trick there before. I remember seeing it on youtube somewhere, and that video had like millions of views, so it is definitely a well-known trick. So, for people who have watched one of those youtube videos, B is no math problem.

Why dont you set some problems let us see how many people call you out for setting some particular topic contest. U guys hating on people who set problems for us and then also complain when people dont come up with contest and yes I am talking specifically about ppl like u since I had seen post of yours 2 weeks ago saying there is no contest for about a week. I really wanna see how u do when u set problems coz all I see u do is yapping and obviously copying from somewhere during contest.

What is computer science but a branch of mathematics? What is all of DSA but maths at the end of the day?

I love Mathematics and there is nothing wrong in asking questions about a certain topic. We shouldn't be policing or banning topics without any reason. Take it as an opportunity to learn new concepts and expand your skills.
