Recently, I have started solving 1500 rated problems, then I encountered this problem PROBLEM: Codeforces Round 962 (Div. 3) FUN link
I want to balance my Ad Hoc kind of reasoning with the maths logic as well.
The problem is that the math tag on Codeforces is a massive grab-bag. When I filter by it, I mostly get: 1. Simple pattern-finding/observation problems. 2. Standard Number Theory (primes, GCDs) that I already know or can easily learn.
Finding problems that require algebraic manipulation, variable bounding, and combinatorics is very hard. So, how can I found these problems?
Also, what should be my approach to improve well?

I donot know about how to get problems where you can code too but you can find some good algebric manupulation problems form the AoPS series of books(just summary and a few problem are enough).
The problem is that code requires a different kind of thinking, I lack that logic.
May be try some problems from Project-Euler from hackerrank, cause it has timelimit I guess.
Thanks bro, I will definitely try ProjectEuler, it seem really good to me.
