Greetings from Chef! Close on the heels of an exciting lineup of contests you all enjoyed, here’s more from Chefland to satisfy your coding appetites in April. This time it’s not a quick snack, it’s a full-course meal with ten days prep time!

I would like to invite you to the April Long Challenge 2018 for 10 days of exciting programming challenges. Joining me on the problem setting panel are:

Please give your feedback on the problem set in the comments below, after the contest.

We partitioned the problem JADUGAR into two subproblems JADUGAR and JADUGAR2 (each subproblem will have the score 50 pts). Those who solved JADUGAR will have at least 50 pts. Duration of the contest will be extended by one day.

Be very careful!!

Why I can't submit JADUGAR2?

I think Judging is taking very long or is completely down. I am waiting since 10 mins for a verdict

For CUTPLANT, can someone explain editorialist's O(n) approach in more detail? I didn't get it. Thanks in advance.

    Hey dear, its always better to ask this question at editorialist's page itself. I make sure to periodically monitor that forum to answer such queries. Can you brief on till where you understood?
