Hi everyone!

Codeforces Round #365 (Div.2) takes place today on 4th of August at 18:05 MSK. As usual Div.1 participants can join out of competition.

I am the author of all the problems, and this is my first round on Codeforces. I advise you to read all the problems, hope you will enjoy them :)

I'd like to thank GlebsHP and danilka.pro for helping me in preparing problems, MikeMirzayanov for the great Codeforces and Polygon platforms and IlyaLos for some useful adviсe.

In this round you will meet Mishka, a little polar bear. She is still young, that's why she may have some problems in finding answers for difficult questions. Will you help her to cope with some of them? :)

UPD. 5 problems, 2 hours to solve them and scoring distribution: 500 — 1000 — 1750 — 2000 — 2250

UPD. We apologize for the inconvenience. All solutions will be judged soon.

UPD. Round is unrated.

UPD. The contest is over. Congratulation to the winners!

Div1: 1. uwi 2. kmjp 3. savinov 4. BigBag 5. KrK

Div2: 1. meteor 2. TmEnd 3. chenjiamin 4. vokeal 5. Denisson

Editorial will be published in the nearest time.

UPD. Editorial

    8 years ago, # ^ |
      Vote: I like it +21 Vote: I do not like it

    First you have to solve a problem. If you solved problem A, lock the problem A(in problem page) and go to 'room', double-click someone's (who solved problem A) source code, and click the "Hack!" button. Sorry for the bad english :(

    8 years ago, # ^ |
      Vote: I like it +27 Vote: I do not like it

    First of all, you need to pass the pretests on the problem you want to hack. When you are done, go to Dashboard and click the padlock which will be on the right of the problem's name. This way you will be able to open every submission for that problem made by someone in your room by going to Room and double-clicking on the cell showing the score and the time of submitting the solution but you won't be able to make further submissions on that problem for the rest of the contest. Also note that you won't be able to use too big test files so in this case you can use a test generator (I think you will see how during the contest), I didn't know that and finished 7th instead of top5 on one of my first contests.

        xor of all dinstinct elements occuring even number of times is equivalent to xor of all distinct elements xored with xor of all elements occuring odd number of times , xor of distinct elements occuring odd number of times is just xor of the whole subarray , so you need to find xor of all distinct elements of a subarray , this can be done offline in N+QlogN in the same way as finding number of distinct elements of a subarray

              Store all nexts (index). Distinct values [l, r] is number of nexts that next[i] (l <= i <= r) > r. This can be with upper_bound. O(log^2) for each query

            Are you sure? I thought so too at first, but I found a problem with my idea... You might be thinking something completely different though, which is why I'm curious :D

            My flawed solution: Store a set in each node of the segment tree. Add all values on the node's segment to its set. This takes O(n log^2 n) time. And when you make a query, you only need to look at log n sets.

            The problem with this: Unless I'm missing something, you can't merge those log n sets efficiently, or get the solution for the entire queried segment from their subsolutions in any other way.

            sort queries according to right end point , now go from 1 to N , if arr[i] has occured before , remove arr[i] from last occurance of arr[i] and put arr[i] at i , now for all queries ending at i , xor of distinct elements from l to i is just query(l , i). this can be done easily with a bit

        It is similar to this: http://www.spoj.com/problems/DQUERY/ Read this: http://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/8962 for an offline approach. Here in this problem, just need to use segment tree to update an element at index and calulate xor of a range using segment tree

        Keep a XOR segment tree: when you encounter a value for the first time, on index i, in the segment tree update the position i with that value, and rememember that last[ arr[i] ] = i;

        And if you've already encountered the value before, also update the position last[ arr[i] ] with the value before updating last[ arr[i] ].

        After processing each index i, you can answer all queries that have r = i. You will only ask the segment tree for some query(l, i), in other words, your right bound is fixed.

        Personally I did it with BIT, not a segment tree.

    Try transforming the problem into the new coordinate space (Time, Y). That is, the first coordinate X is time and second coordinate Y denotes the same thing (distance from bottom to top).

    I will write a more detailed explanation (with a picture) after a few hours (I'm still working =)) if nobody writes satisfactory explanation.

    PS: no need for binary search.

    Imagine that the x axis represents time. If the pedestrian walks at full speed straight up, he'll move with a slope of u/v. Then, you can easily check if he can walk in front of the bus (this line is to the left of the entire bus) and, if he can't make it in front, how long he has to wait for each vertex of the bus to pass (horizontal distance between the line and vertex).

    For each vertex, find if it can reach the vertical line before the person can pass the point at which this vertex will intersect with the line. If no/all points satisfy the previous statement, then the person can pass before/after the bus with full speed. Otherwise, you have to go after the bus with different speeds. Start with the lowest (and rightmost in case of a tie) vertex and check the point at which it will meet the vertical line. If you can arrive to this point in a time earlier than the vertex reach time, wait for this vertex to pass the line. If the vertex reached it earlier, then you can move with max speed. Consider vertices in counter-clockwise direction and stop when you pass the highest vertex (at this moment go the remaining distance with full speed).

    Instead of moving the bus, just consider the guy to be moving. As the bus is convex we can see that it is optimal to be still for a while and then move at maximum speed. Then we only need to see for how long do we need to wait. Again, as the bus is convex, we just need to see the time needed to pass right through each point and store its maximum (for point (X,Y) it will be X/V-Y/U). Thus, if we can't just walk from time 0, (i.e. among the values calculated there is a positive and a negative value) we will need the maximum value calculated plus W/U, else its just W/U. (sorry for possible errors, first time commenting :) )

    Supplement visual guide to the comments above :)

    Transformation of the pedestrian's path.

    Strictly vertical path in XY-plane becomes tilted to the right in the TY-plane.

    Convex bus undergoes absolutely the same transformation, but it doesn't become tilted! After that we should look at the intersections of the transformed figures.

    I use a similar offline-algorithm like http://www.spoj.com/problems/DQUERY/ try to calculate the XOR-sum of distinct number in a segment then the ans = the XOR-sum of distinct number in a segment ^ prefix[r] ^ prefix[l — 1]

    prefix[i] means a0 ^ a1 ^ a2 ^ ... ^ ai

I liked B and C but don't know how to solve D. There are so many ideas in my head with different time and memory complexities using huge amount of build-in data structures and written by my own but nothing of this, I guess, can pass tests. Please help me. What is your solution for D? UPD: I think, because of 15 given additional minutes, round must be rated.

    I have been in similar situation, you can try two optimizations: 1. Use scanf and printf instead of cin and cout. 2. Use dynamically allocated array using malloc, new or global array instead of vector. Time limit problem will most probably go away. And segment trees are slow(not asymptotically but practically) so you will most probably have to do these optimizations whenever using them.

    I think it's dynamic programming, suppose k=p_1^a_1....p_s^a_s let F(b_1,b_2...b_s,w) be the minimum number of integers among a_1,a_2...a_w you should pick to make the number a multiple of p_1^b_1.....p_s^b_2. That works to get the minimum number of integers needed, although I'm not sure how to change it to get the actual set of number.

It seems long queue affected many participants of the contest. I counted number of users which got verdict after 15 minutes of waiting and verdict was non-OK. It is about 2000 participants.

Taking into account such a significant number, we've decided to make round unrated. Sorry about it.

Today long queue is not a systemic issue, it is a result of several unsuccessful matches. Be sure, I'll do my best to make the next round quickly judged.

====

Похоже, что длинная очередь существенным образом задела большое количество участников. Я посчитал у скольких участников тестирование было в очереди более 15 минут, а затем был получен вердикт не-OK. Таких участников около 2000.

Принимая во внимание такую значительную цифру, мы решили сделать раунд нерейтинговым. Приносим извинения за это.

Сегодняшняя проблема с очередью не системная, а результат нескольких неудачных совпадений. Можете быть уверены, я приложу все усилия, чтобы следующий раунд тестировался быстро.

      Usually when these things happen on a site that involves some type of competition, you have to take a decision. Implementing both is very impractical. Do you realise how much time would it take to manually update rating for everyone who wants? and putting a time implementing a feature for it so just when only something like this happens it is used, is a waste of time and money. ( And it's also not fair, because if some people could actually submit solutions, your rank might probably be a little bit down).

      These issues rarely happen on CF. Just deal with it as if it was an ED round. No big deal, if you did well this time, you can pretty much do it again in future contests.

I liked the concepts of the problems, they were very interesting, but I have a couple observations to make:

  1. As everyone has said, the servers were complete garbage, though this isn't the fault of the writers.
  2. I think the design for problem D was kind of bad, because you have a very large input, and at the same time large numbers. I had to use a map for the occurrences, which led to TLE on test 50. If the numbers in the array were to be at most, say, 1.000.000, there would have been no problem, but by making the numbers as large as a billion, you are making the problem harder and the time complexity greater for no real purpose. For both large input and large numbers, the time limit was too tight.

But I think the writers have good potential! They are able to write hard, interesting and complex problems. I wish them luck in the next rounds they will (hopefully) write.

P.S. I find it is in good taste to make the round unrated, mostly because of the huge server issues. Thank you for that.

Although there was sure some inconvenience, I still think it a good contest~ Many thanks to contributors~~~

The delay and some other problems are largely due to the large number of participants and div 2 only. It doesn't affect that CF is still a great community to improve coding skills. It just mean that this site is becoming more and more popular and the server need to be upgraded. I think we should support the site rather than complain the organizer or the limited source of the site.

That's it. Just feel a little sad seeing so many people blame the organizer and the site.

Edit2: Just noticed "input are given in counter-clockwise order" FML

      My implementation: http://ideone.com/mFVRYD

      (I can't submit it right now — it says the contest is still pending for system test, so I can't guarantee this code is bug free, as I always miss out small counter-case details. I am pretty sure the approach is correct though.)

      Case 1: The pedestrian will not get hit by the car if he rushes through as fast as possible — in this case we just have to check whether he will reaches point (0,y) earlier than each (x,y) of the car.

      Case 2: The pedestrian will have to wait for the car to past through first.

      In this case we just consider everything as the back of the car, and sort all the vertices in increasing y-axis value. Then you just check for the later event — the pedestrian reaches point (0,y) or the point (x,y) of the car passes (0,y). And as a smart-aleck I missed this obvious observation when I coded, instead I did the following in my code.

      We can check from the lowest point of the car, the sequence of edges which starts from it and has a positive slope is the parts where it could possibly "limit" the pedestrian speed as a part of the back of the car. (This is because it is guaranteed the vehicle is a CONVEX POLYGON, and it is convenient to implement since the edges are given in counter-clockwise order.) Again we check for the later among the two events mentioned above — it's fine to just check these points anyways. Don't forgot to calculate for time (0,0) -> (0,ymin) and (0,ymax) -> (0,w)

      UPD: Just rewrote the code in a much more simple fashion, this should be easier for anyone to understand the idea. http://ideone.com/ZjTybR

        My idea is similar. I implemented it during the contest but after my solution, which past pretests, was judged with the system tests gave WA#12. I too have the problem with still pending system testing as I wrote below. Here is my implementation:19631048.

          I think you miss out cases where miny>=w and mawy>w.

          Here is a hack case for you:

          5 1 1 2 1 2 3 1 4 3 3 4 1 4

          It's just the test case 1 with w=1, the pedestrian is able to rush to (0,1) with ease, yet your code outputs 3.0s.

          (Whopos just read the constraints again... nvm it's guarantee every y<=w)

    When I enter yesterday contest now, it still says pending system testing (and of course I can't submit and see what are the tests of the tasks). Maybe there are more people with this problem. I found that this problem is on the devices (my laptop and tablet) where yesterday I was checking the standings for a lot of time and for example if I open codeforces on my phone, there is no such problem. Could someone offer me some advice or a way to fix it?

    UPD: Now the problem mysteriously disappeared. Finally the contest finished for me :). Does someone still have this problem?

    UPD2: The problem returned again.

      Do you think excluding O(n*divisors(k)*log_gcd) solutions was a good idea with author's O(n*divisors(k)*primes(k))?

      what was your nlogn idea? you must be calculating it wrong, the intended solution is nlogn itself.

        I sort queries. I have segment tree which can make xor on range and can return xor value of range. I iterate through input data and do xor(1,last_place[input [i]], input [i]). In i step I have in tree data about xor(only for numbers with even amount of occur ) for ranges [1,2,3,...,i;i]. Now i can just check valueInTree(query[i].start,query[i].start).

        Now work:) printf and scanf. I thought that cout/cin is faster with ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false) than printf/scanf

Has anyone solved Div2D with persistent segment tree . My submission (Code) is giving Runtime Error on TestCase 14.I don't have any clue of the reason and have allocated more than enough memory (I think). The idea of pst's root[i] is to store xor of distinct numbers which are as close to it as possible.
