CodeChef May Challenge 2019
By Morphy, history, 6 years ago, In English

CodeChef May Challenge will start in ~63h ( May 3 15:00 IST )

You will have 10 days to solve 8 puzzles. This time the problems are more accessible, so I expect a fierce battle in the approximation problem. See you in the ranklist!

The puzzles were cooked by

  • Setters: Danya Smelskiy (smelskiy), Lewin Gan (lg5293), Abhinav Jain (iamabjain), Vivek Chauhan (vivek_1998299), Xusheng Wang (wxs02wxs0103), Ashish Gupta (ashishgup), Vinay Katare (vinay_katare), Misha (mishaprigara), Alei Reyes (alei).
  • Testers: Arash (silversoul), Michael Nematollahi (watcher)
  • Editorialist: Alexander Kulkov (melfice)
  • Statement Verifier: Jakub Safin (xellos0)
  • Translators: Fedor Korobeinikov (gomelfk), Hu Zecong (huzecong), Team VNOI (songuku95), Mohammad Solaiman (solaimanope), Akash Srivastava (devils_code)

PS. If you are interested in setting problems for CodeChef, send your ideas to problems@codechef.com, or via this form. Alekhine reviews the odd proposals, and Alexey Shirov Zayakin the even ones.

Morphy since you are new CC long admin. Can we expect unofficial timely editorial of all long challenges on your blog?
Since you did this in past many times. :P

    I guess I can post some general ideas, or the sketches sent by authors. But since the editorialist is adamant, I think they will be ready on time.
