Christmas isn't a season. It's a feeling. — Edna Ferber
Hello everyone!
I would like to invite you to participate in another HackerEarth contest. This time it is Christmas Circuits. It's a long contest that will start on December, 16, 21:00 IST (check your timezone). Contest will run for 8 days.
The problemset consists of 7 traditional algorithmic tasks and 1 approximate problem. For traditional algorithmic tasks, you will receive points for every test case your solution passes — so you can get some points with partial solutions as well. For the approximation task, your score depends on the best solution in the contest so far. Check contest page for more details about in-contest schedule and rules.
The contest stories will be about Christmas and the main character will be Little Santa. I'd like to thanks KuchumovIlya for preparing these tasks, I_love_Tanya_Romanova for testing them and MikeMirzayanov for creating Polygon.
The contest will be RATED.
Happy Coding and Merry Christmas :)
Lol, blog in CF contest's style, he thanked Mike for Polygon, also he mentioned that the contest is rated :)
on the contest page instructions it says that there will be 4 Programming, 4 Approximate problems.
while here it says that the problemset consists of 7 traditional algorithmic tasks and 1 approximate problem.
There are multiple answers for some problems. We have to write checker for that. Its showing 4 Approximate problems because of that. There is only 1 Approximate problem which will have relative marking. Other problems don't have relative marking.
Thanks for pointing it out. We will fix it soon.
Contest is live. See you on the leaderboard :)
Set 2 is live now :)
