A Small Suggestion
By Luo_Yicheng, history, 3 months ago, In English

I suggest that Codeforces add a feature to copy the LaTeX source of problem statements.

Currently, if I select and copy the text directly, it may cause issues—for example, $$$10^5$$$ might become $$$105$$$.

This is just a suggestion; feel free to disregard it if it's not feasible. I will figure out an alternative method.

No, I don’t really agree. It would make copy-paste actions by cheaters much easier. Besides, if your goal is to create documentation for yourself by copying the problem statement, I think that if you’re already used to writing in Markdown, using LaTeX shouldn’t be too difficult.

    Nothing can stop them. They can just use firefox snapshot and they will become pro cheaters.

If you need problems' markdown, Codeforces Better is a perfect script. But don't use for Cheating.
