Hope I can solve E.
how to solve E?
Well, I couldn't solve it.
Neko~ Neko~
Hope I can solve E,F
I hope to solve E.
Hope I can solve E,f and G.
Hope we can solve E,F.
G, never mind.
Hope I solve A ad B.
Hope I can solve E
Hope I can solve C
Hope to solve E.
Notice!!! long long!!!
I will go insane before I finish D (I am already screaming in my room)
Problem G
A<B<C<G<D<E<F
Terrible Contest
I can confirm this is yet another horrible contest since abc421.
Can anyone help with D : submission
Very easy G for this round, but F a bit tough.
What is A? I didn't get the statement language. Help me!
Terrible contest.
ABCDEG
Wow, a shit G !!!
So basic that G<<<<<F.
Hardest F ever...
A<B<C<D<E<G<<<<<<<<<<<<<<F.I think this problem F can be a problem C in an ARC++ contest.
I think F is even harder than ABC444F
F maybe ARC++ problem B ~ C hard.
F is hardest in ABC?
ARC++ B~C is more easier than today's F
Why is greedy solution failing for C ??
Since N = 20, we can try all possibilities using bitmasks.
咋整啊 我这个c的测试点总是过不了 哪位大佬来救救我TT (I can never pass the test point for c.Could any expert come to my rescue T^T) ~~~~~ //
include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main() { ios::sync_with_stdio(false); cin.tie(nullptr);
} ~~~~~
the greedy approach does not work (u can use bitmask in $$$O(2^n)$$$ to try every case)
but i'll try to make a WA case:
$$$a = [5, 2, 9, 6]$$$, your code outputs $$$2$$$ but optimal is $$$3$$$
i think your code does: $$$0.5 \rightarrow -4.5 \rightarrow -2.5 \rightarrow 6.5 \rightarrow 0.5$$$
but notice that moving left instead of right when you move $$$2$$$ steps
$$$0.5 \rightarrow -4.5 \rightarrow -6.5 \rightarrow 2.5 \rightarrow -3.5$$$
Hi, could someone help me to find where is the mistake on my code in Problem F: 74900820
I believe I am doing the same thing with editorial, but my code gets WA on 4 cases.
Your solution is almost perfect, but there is only one blind spot.
The sum of $$$C_i$$$ isn't capped, and can go up to $$$9 \times 10^{10}$$$. This causes overflow in a 32-bit integer.
lol i was late 5mins for the contest i accidentally clicked unrated, but that was good because i wasn't able to solve D :D
the D is a 3d bfs????so hard to write.....
why don't they provide English editorial this time?and why don't they put the trivial problem G in the contest?it's the worst ABC I have ever participated.
very nice E imo
KumaTachiRen's Japanese editorial for problem F seems having a flaw.
For
ABCDEF, a leaf sequence with $$$L=6$$$. Permuting them to $$$v$$$ with the "odd-first, even-second" fashion yieldsADBECF, where $$$|v_i-v_{i-1}|+1$$$ can be $$$3$$$, which is exactly $$$\frac{L}{2}$$$. Therefore, the claim that $$$v_i$$$ and $$$v_{i+1}$$$ locate in different subtree of $$$x$$$ is incorrect.A easy way to fix it is to employ a "even-first, odd-second" fashion, where
ABCDEFis permuted asDAEBFC.
