UPD1: We hope you enjoyed the problem set. The editorial to the contest can be found here.
Congratulations to the top 5 participants!
We will contact the top 3 participants for prizes soon.
UPD2 : The model solution for D assumes max k for which a solution exists is $$$\frac{n(n - 1)}{2}$$$, which is incorrect, however, the checker does not reject valid solutions, so we have decided to keep the problem. We are really sorry for this mistake. Thanks to wakanda-forever for pointing this out.

Reminder for the contest, it starts in 10 minutes.
Really nice problems. Any hint for C2?
Look at the number of zeros and number of ones in the bit representation of the number, if zeros_cnt>=ones_cnt we can flip, so with one number we are guaranteed to set max(zero_cnt,one_cnt) bits
I solved it a minute after the contest ended..
Here's a hint- try solving these cases:
$$$[3, 3, 4]$$$
$$$[1, 3, 4]$$$
$$$[1, 4, 5, 8]$$$
Hey I can't view others submissions for upsolving, please allow view submissions
You should be able to see the others submissions and all the test cases now.
