First of all, I didn't even come to know when this editorial came.
In D, there was the constraint "Each person needs S or M, M or L, L or XL" and so on.
I was wondering how to solve D if this constraint is removed. I was trying to maintain what all people are left with just a SINGLE choice, so I have no option but to give them the t-shirt of their choice, and on doing so, find new people that are left with single choice.
Ofcourse, this can stop mid-way, and we would be left with people having exactly two choices. But I couldn't analyse how to proceed ahead. My failed attempt

    You can just build a network and run max flow on it and it will pass since the graph is special.

      That's cool. Then I guess this problem from last contest is also basically the same but with cost assigned to each edge.(MinCostMaxFLow) I am new to the concept of max flow, but let me know whether I am thinking correct or not. Also can you share some AC codes on CF/CC where you used MaxFlow and MinCostMaxFlow because I am not able to find a good template for them.
