Happy Coding :)
A gentle reminder, the contest is about to start.
Can you add problems to practice please?
It will be added soon.
Hey, we registered our team Phoenix under the name 'phoenixiiti' on the pantheon website because someother team had taken the name 'Phoenix' already.
Commenting to avoid any issues.
We will take care of that.
Hint for Lazer Tag?
Iterate over every subset of all possible permutations of hitting mirrors and simulate the path that the laser will take using ray tracing.
The problems have been added in practice.
I'm guessing that in the problem Manufacturing Goods, the intended solution uses Min Cost Max Flow? However I noticed that a lot of teams have got AC with a simple greedy heuristic. Please check this and add stronger tests to the problem to fail such solutions.
Hack for greedy solution?
I have no idea, actually. Apologies if that solution is correct!
For this problem, both the greedy solution and the min cost max flow solution were expected. There is no problem with the test cases as the greedy solution is absolutely fine.
