Hello, Codeforces!

As IOI 2016 is around the corner, we decided to host a series of competitions in a format more similar to the Olympiad. We will use problems from past Romanian competitions. For this reason, the contests will be unrated.

IOI 2016 Training Round #1 will take place on Sunday, June/05/2016 09:00 (UTC). This contest will have a medium difficulty, but we hope you'll find the tasks interesting. Don't forget to register in order to participate.

Contest format:

  • You will have to solve 3 tasks in 4 hours.
  • There will be full feedback throughout the entire contest.
  • The tasks will have partial scoring. The maximum score for each problem will be 100 points.
  • There will be no tie breaker, so two users having the same total score at the end of the contest will share the same place in the standings.

The problem authors for this round are Cosmin Silvestru Negrușeri, mugurelionut and Mihai Pătrașcu.

We still recommend using an updated version of Google Chrome. If you find any bugs please email us at contact@csacademy.com

Don't forget to like us on Facebook, VK and follow us on Twitter.

EDIT: The editorial has been posted. Congrats to everybody who got a maximum score!

    You mean if you can organize your own competitions? Not yet, as we don't have a cool tool like polygon. But we're working on it.

        He said that they're working on a tool for uploading your contests and currently it's not available. It's the same if it's your contest or not as long as you're the one uploading it :)
