I appreciate your effort, but this contest was very mediocre. Problemsetting might not be the job for you guys. It was basically Geometryforces, and I'm not good at geometry. Please, no more geometry problems.

    If you know you're bad at geometry, study up on geometry and stop blaming the author for using too many geometry problems.

    O looks like a circle. All statements have at least 1 occurrence of the letter o in them. That's the most geometryforces round I've ever seen!

      In second one you are given a binary string Carry out the following steps ; .

      1.Select a 1 such that there is immediate 0 next to it
      2.Delete either 0 or 1

      . Repeat the above two steps and continuously reducing the string. There will exist a optimal choices on part 2 such that the string is reduced to smallest length possible and if such lengths strings are many you need to output the lexico wise smallest.

    Because the numbers you take the max of are very close to each other, so if you assume that the dp values are almost random the chance of there being an error in $$$n \leq 2 \cdot 10^6$$$ is pretty small.

    It seems like there is no $$$n \le 2 \cdot 10^6$$$ such that $$$dp[n][0] \equiv 10^9 + 6 \mod (10^9 + 7)$$$, since otherwise the answer for $$$n = 2 \cdot 10^6$$$ will be different

        max(9,11)%10=11%10=1 , but max(9%10, 11%10)%10=9. That's why it "looks" possible that if you always keep the answer mod-ed, taking the max might create problems. That's what people tried to prove/disrove above. I hope it helps.

    Is this method same as what is used for finding Fibonacci numbers ??

    I think it can be done only if we have the relation:

    dp[i] = dp[i-2]*2 + dp[i-1]

    But we also have additional constraint:

    for every i divisible by 3, dp[i]+=4

      A $$$4 \times 4$$$ matrix should work, but matrices doesn't help with solving the challenge, the intended solution works in $$$O(1)$$$ for each test case. (considering $$$x^y$$$ to be calculated in $$$O(1)$$$)

      Can you do it with a 5x5? You need just a linear combination of dp[n-1], dp[n-2], n%3==0, n%3==1, and n%3==2, in order to determine dp[n], right?

            If you write out the matrix on paper, you'll see that each time you multiply some initial vector by the matrix, the last 3 entries will shift cyclically. You can use that to add a value every 3rd step.

      maxwill Using your relation, I came up with a formula for when n%3==0,1,2 respectively, but there seems some mistake which I'm not able to figure out.

      [T_(n-1)]     T^(2*(n-3)/3) * T3^((n-3)/3) * [0]
      [T_(n)  ]=                                   [1]
      [1      ]                                    [1]
      

      The above applies when n%3==0, and similarly I've worked out other two cases, but idk why this starts giving wrong output from 9 onwards. Is there some mistake in this relation? How do I correct it. I've spent hours.

          T_n is the nth term. T and T3 are the matrices {{0,1,0},{2,1,0},{0,0,1}} and {{0,1,0},{2,1,1},{0,0,1}} Final answer of any n will be n*4. I haven't made any mistake in calculating power of the matrix, I've checked that function. I don't know what am I missing x

          UPD: I was doing a blunder in multiplication. Therefore, changed the matrix. Now, rather than using multiple 3X3 matrices, I am using one 4X4 matrix and finally got AC. 84893815.

          I still wonder, how do we solve it using two 3X3 matrices.__

      I don't think so. Whoever can come up the recurrence AND knows matrix exponentiation will definitely be able to implement it quite quickly. In fact, I tried the mat expo first, only to notice later that it wasn't necessary. A little harder, yes. But still, well within the range, I believe.

    I think the proof is quite intuitive. The author's explanation is too wordy.

    Notice that

    • We can break down the problem into finding the $$$\sum_i MAX(friend_i) + \sum_i MIN(friend_i)$$$

    • For some large $$$a_i$$$, it is easy to use it to maximize the $$$\sum_i MAX(friend_i)$$$ by giving it to a person with no gifts. This suggests for each person's initial gift, we should be handing out one gifts to each person in decreasing order

    • In order to maximize $$$\sum_i MIN(friend_i)$$$ as well, we notice that $$$MIN(friend_i) == MAX(friend_i)$$$ if $$$w_i = 1$$$. So, we reorder our gifts so people with $$$w_i = 1$$$ get the largest gifts.

    • Because of the way the MIN function works, it' doesn't make sense to give someone many gifts with high $$$a_i$$$, then one gift with low $$$a_i$$$. Similar to last point, it's more efficient to give the better gifts to friends with smaller $$$w_i$$$. This way, we burn less of the good gifts on people. This suggests that we should use a greedy solution to fill the remaining $$$w_i$$$ for each friend and we should fill the friends with smaller $$$w_i$$$ first, with the largest unused $$$a_i$$$.

        The purpose of a proof is to convince someone that a solution is correct.

        Can I spend 10 more minutes to come up with a more rigorous proof? Probably. Do I want to spend 10 more minutes to do it during a contest? Probably not.

        And since we're being evaluated on our ability to code and not on our ability to prove our solutions, using non-rigorous proofs is the correct way to go as long as the proofs can convince OURSELVES that a solution is correct.

          In almost every wrong greedy you can come up with something to convince yourself. The purpose of the proof is NOT to convince, the purpose of the proof is to give 100% confidence. Convince seems a weaker word to me, I am usually convinced by every other wrong solution.

          I don't feel good about your proof. For example, why try to maximize MAX for each friend first? Can increasing MINs at the cost of some MAXs be better? Of course, the answer is NO. Simply, because here, the algorithm is indeed correct. But your proof is a bit too handwavy to address many of the critical issues.

        Ok, how about this proof? First, you sort your integer Array from largest to smallest and start distributing to friends from the front. also you sort your friends from smallest to biggest by w.

        the first priority friend is the friend with w = 1. because if you give to that friend, the happiness is boosted twice. After giving the integers to that friends with w=1, the second priority is maxing the MAX of the leftover friends. that way, you dont waste your big numbers between MAX and MIN of the friends. you distribute your numbers one by one to your friends and max their MAXes.

        then you need to start wasting your numbers, the way to do it is starting with friends with small w so you dont waste as much numbers.

        end?

    The key intuition here is that you cannot change the leading 0s or trailing 1s. Anything in between, however, can be converted into a 0 in some way, so you don't need to remove anything. All you have to do is keep the leading 0s and trailing 1s, and if elements remain in the middle, add a 0 in between.

    the 0 is added is the 0 right before the trailing 1s in original string

    There were just certain observations that

    1.You can't change leading zeros and trailing 1s
    2.Anything in between can be transformed to 1 or 0

    Like *****110010**** — ****10010**** — ****1010**** — ****110**** — ****10**** — ****1**** or — ****0****

    3.But since we need lexico wise smallest we'll take 0
    4. Hence our answer becomes (leading 0s) + 0 + (trailing 1s)

O(N + M) solution for E. We need to make the observation that as long as the degree of a node is not greater than the value of the node, it is always optimal to remove it as late as possible. Then we can run a process similar to topological sort to check if we can remove all edges.

      Hopefully you see why with this case:

      2 1
      2 2
      1 2
      

      Edit: Sorry, this case does not disprove your point due to the weird way I checked the vis array. However, you must realize that edges should still be removed even if both nodes it connects are visited :)

        I got the case See the 5th test case. The logic that we need not remove an edge if both nodes are visited is perfectly alright. But what is happening is if we check only that we will be repeating operations for the same edges because queue may contain multiple entries of the same node. suppose you have three nodes between 1 and 2. Then if you start from 1, you will push 2 into the queue 3 times. Now when you iterate for 2 if you don't check the edges then you will loop 3 times for each edge. Hence you get an error. Btw, thanks for looking into it.

          Precisely. The duplicate entries are caused by the abnormal placement of the vis[cur] = 1 line, which in turn causes the error you mentioned. Please see the more accurate implementation here, where the case I mentioned would effectively break if you checked for !vis[nxt.s] instead.

          I guess the lesson to be learned here is to always implement as precisely as possible, otherwise debugging may become a lot harder :D

    1. Add one child to nodes with 0 children
    2. Add 2 children to those nodes which already have one child
    3. And if the node has already more than 1 child, we don't need to add any more child to it.

    So,3rd level graph is given int the question

    Nodes with no children -> 3,5,4 Add 1 child to these(8,10,9 respectively) , Nodes with 1 child -> 2 Add 2 children to it(7,6) ,

    No need to add children to 1 as it already has more than 2 children

    It has quite a straightforward proof. We know that in an n sided polygon, each internal angle is (n-2)*180/n. To get this value, we basically divided the polygon into triangles, and there n-2 triangles in a polygon, and every triangle has 180 degrees, so there are (n-2)*180 degrees. Now, let's choose a point and think about every triangle originating from that point. Then, every angle from that point will be equal to (n-2)*180/(n*(n-2)) => 180/n. Now, for one side to be parallel to x axis and one side to y axis, a right angled triangle needs to exist. This means that there has to exist a pair of points such that the angle between them is 45degrees. So, we can basically form an equation like this: (180/n)*x = 45, where x is the distance between these two points. The x and to be an integer, so solving for x we get => (1/4)*n. This means, that n has to be a multiple of for an integer solution to exists. I know, proof is very messy, but hope this makes sense!

Here's an easier analysis for A. The exterior angle (diagram below) of a regular polygon of n sides is 360/n
In order for one side to align to the vertical and another side to the horizontal, the sum of the exterior angles of some k consecutive sides must equal 90.

We must have
(360/n) * k = 90
k = 90*n/360 = n/4
So n must be a multiple of 4 for such an integer k to exist.

    Let the answer for RDB of level $$$i$$$ be $$$dp_i$$$ . Also an RDB of level i is connected to two RDB of level $$$i-2$$$ and one RDB of level $$$i-1$$$.

    1. Note that it is beneficial to ignore the root vertex of RDB of level $$$i$$$ if $$$dp_{i-2}$$$ requires the root to be included. Because, at the cost of adding one claw of $$$i-1$$$, we'll lose two claws, one for each RDB of level $$$i-2$$$.

    2. For $$$dp_{i-1}$$$, it doesn't matter whether we include the root or not because either way no extra claw gets added or removed.

    3. Also if both $$$dp_{i-1}$$$ and $$$dp_{i-2}$$$ doesn't require their root to be included to get their respective values, we'll add root of RDB of level $$$i$$$.

    Point 3 gives an idea on whether to include root or not in point 2. That it is if including the root doesn't matter in getting $$$dp_i$$$, we'll always not include it. Because in doing so, we may get a better answer for $$$dp_{i+2}$$$. Say we'll include root for $$$i$$$, then we can't (or rather shouldn't) include root for $$$i+1$$$ and $$$i+2$$$, but this implies we'll include root for $$$i+3$$$. In the question, we have to include root for $$$i = 3$$$, so we have to include root for $$$i=6,9,12,..$$$ as well. That is where that $$$i$$$ % $$$3$$$ comes into play.

    You are saying you count new vertices but you are doing dp[i][2] = dp[i-1][2]+dp[i-1][1]. So it is getting added cumulatively.Also for ith layer you need to do dpp[i] = dp[i][2]+dpp[i-3]. You can see this after drawing some trees.

        Suppose you used the root for some x. Now, x will be a child of both x+1, and x+2 so, in either of them, you can't use the top claw (because it's child is x and it's root has been used already). Now, for x+3, it's children will be x+1, and x+2 whose roots are free and you can use the top claw in this case. It's a period of 3, just check where it starts.

        Here's my thought process in this problem:

        If you look at the case n=4 closely, you'll see that the tree RDB(4) is actually composed of a root node linking to 2 instances of RDB(2) and an instance of RDB(3).

        Now, because of this, we might start to think that a[i]=a[i-1]+2*a[i-2]. This formula holds true for n=5, but doesn't for n=6 if you check by hand. Why is this? It turns out that, again, checking by hand, in the case n=6 we can use the top claw.

        Again, we think about when it is possible to use the top claw. Clearly, when n=4 and n=5 we couldn't use the top claw because we did that when n=3. However, when n=6, we can use the top claw as we did not when n=4 and n=5.

        We see that we can use the top claw in the case n when we didn't in the case n-1 and n-2. Seeing as 3 is the first n to allow this, we conclude that we can use the top claw if n is divisible by 3.

        Therefore we have the above formula: a[i]=a[i-1]+2*a[i-2]+4*(i%3==0).

For pB I tried to use a "more greedy" approach, which consisted on going backwards on the string and once I had a zero I would starting deleting ones until the last one. Then I looped again though the string, starting from the first One and deleting all zeros that followed, except for the last, which was kept and the One deleted. It ended up being pretty messy, but it worked, even tough I didn't had time to submit it during the contest because of some stupid bugs. Here is my solution, you won't have a good time looking at code(it is pretty messy as I said), but here it is: 84823891

What's wrong with my solution? 84826635

I use a 3d dp to keep a count of vertices with 0, 1 and 3(the outer ones, as they will only contribute to the next state) children. Then I say that:

dp[0][i] = (2*dp[1][i-1]%MOD+dp[0][i-1]%MOD)%MOD;
dp[1][i] = (dp[0][i-1])%MOD;
dp[3][i] = (dp[1][i-1])%MOD;

I fill the dp till i = 2000002 using the above relation. And finally output (dp[3][n]*4)%MOD

There is some mistake in this logic. But I'm not able to figure out where and how to fix it?

        okay.in my solution here,

        dp[i][0] is the number of nodes which has 0 child in i'th level, dp[i][1] is the number of nodes which has 1 child in i'th level, dp[i][3] is the number of nodes which has 3 child in i'th level, at the same time dp[i][3] denotes total number of claws.

        in sol[] array I calculate the solution for n'th level in sol[n].

        in my solution,

        sol[n]= sol[n-3] + number of new claw added in n'th level * 4 .

        ** claws which were added newly in n-1 and n-2 th claw are overlapped.So i didn't count them.

The output is

?

I thought, these scenarios is possible:

  • 1 -> Lee 2 -> Ice Bear 4 -> Lee 8 -> Ice Bear 16 (Lose) -> Next Round 4 -> Ice Bear 5 -> Lee 6 or 10 (Lose)

  • 1 -> Lee 2 -> Ice Bear 4 -> Lee 8 -> Ice Bear 9 -> Lee 18 (Lose) -> Next Round 4 -> Lee 5 -> Ice Bear 6 or 10 (Lose)

Hence Lee can win and can lose too.

Where did I go wrong? Or maybe, what does it mean by "can be the winner independent of Ice Bear's moves or not" and "can be the loser"?

    Here "can be the winner" means that Lee has a strategy where he will definitely win and Ice Bear can't prevent this. Similarly for "can be the loser".

    Indeed, the problem statement is a bit ambiguous.

I have a better solution for D(which is close to phrasing the question in another way),

you can think of nodes in 3 — levels

level1 — it is just one node without any children (when it moves to level 2 it gives rise to 1 another node)

level2 — it is node with one child (when it moves to level3 it gives rise to 2 other nodes)

level3 — this node will be our matter of interest which won't give rise to any other node but it signifies atleast one claw(4 nodes)

you can compute level1 ,level2 ,level3 nodes for height-MAX_n using simple dp

level3[i] = (level3[i-1]+level2[i-1])%MOD

level2[i] = level1[i-1]

level1[i] = (level1[i-1] + level2[i-1]*2)%MOD

now precompute all answers for 1 <= i <= 2* 10^6,

which is easy to compute using simple observation, for some i , ans[i] = (ans[i-3] + level3[i] — level3[i-1])%MOD

which means the, if you include claws which changed from level2 to level3 during transition of height i-1 to i , you cannot include nodes which became level3 at height i-1 but you can add nodes which became level3 at height i-2 but not at i-3 ...so on (which is just ans[i-3])

now output ans[height]*4

    The easiest way to look at it is that in this situation you won't be able to fix the last friend in the permutation. Suppose we fix some friend as the last one in the permutation with food choices as (x,y) , now there will be 0 x left and 0 y left when it is his/her turn because sx-1 times people have eaten X before him and as sx>wx , hence we will have 0 'x' left and same argument for 'y' , so there cannot exist any last friend which implies there is not solution.

        Yes but it depends from which index we are removing. We say it's O(n) because we need to shift the elements after the index of removal. But here we can clearly see that this person is removing either the last element of the list or 2nd last. So in the worst case time taken will be O(2n) not O(n^2). :)

          That's not true. If the string is 100000... then they are removing the second element each time, so it is n^2. You see this by running it locally on a 1 followed by 10^6-1 0s and it will take forever.

For problem D, consider the following dp: let a[n] be the answer if we color the root, and b[n] be the answer if we do NOT color the root. They obey the recurrence given in the code below. Then the solution is max(a[n], b[n]). But this does not coincide with the results using the code from the editorial. What am I missing?

int N = 20;
vector<ll> a(N+1); //use root
vector<ll> b(N+1); //do not use root
vector<ll> c(N+1); //editorial
a[2] = 4; b[2] = 0; c[2] = 4;

    Because you are thinking $$$unrooted_n = rooted_{n-1} + 2*rooted_{n-2}$$$. This is not correct. $$$unrooted_{n-2}$$$ might be better than $$$rooted_{n-2}$$$. In other words, for $$$unrooted_n$$$, you have the capability to take the children rooted, but it is not mandatory. You are making it mandatory. This wrongful enforcing causes the problem.

    If you start constructing the tree, you will find a pattern.
    The tree of level "i" will have a subtree of level "i-1" in the middle and 2 subtrees of level "i-2" on the 2 sides. The structure will be exactly the same as obtained for levels "i-1" and "i-2".
    Thus, dp[i] = dp[i-1] + 2*dp[i-2] + (i%3==0)
    The last part comes from the fact that after every 3 steps, the root claw becomes available to use.

I solved problem D by keeping count of nodes with 0,1,3 children. The claws (nodes with 3 children) at level n-3 do not overlap with the bottom most claws at level n and can simply be added to the answer of level n . The bottom most claws will contribute 4 yellow nodes each. If we keep track of how many claws there are at level n we can find our answer.

For every n counts are updated as -

cnt_0[n] = cnt_0[n-1] + 2 * cnt_1[n-1]
cnt_1[n] = cnt_0[n-1]
cnt_3[n] = cnt_1[n-1]

ans[n] = cnt_3[n] * 4 + ans[n-3]

Four methods for Problem D:

Method 0. using dp as the Editorial given: $$$a_i = a_{i-1} + 2 \cdot a_{i-2} + (i \% 3 == 0?4:0)$$$ (use $$$a_i$$$ instead of $$$dp_i$$$ for short) Code: 84808226

there is a typing mistake in Brief Solution of D: $$$(i \% 3 == 0?4:0)$$$ instead of $$$(i \% 3 == 0?1:0)$$$ DeadlyCritic

Expand the above recurrence formula we have

$$$ \begin{pmatrix} a_{3n+2} \\ a_{3n+1} \\ a_{3n} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 5& 6& 0& 12 \\ 3& 2& 0& 4 \\ 1& 2& 0& 4 \\ 0& 0& 0& 1 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} a_{3n-1} \\ a_{3n-2} \\ a_{3n-3} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} $$$

with $$$a_0 = a_1 = a_2 = 0$$$, and $$$A$$$ indicate the coefficient matrix.

Methods below are $$$O(\log n)$$$ time complex since size of $$$A$$$ is a constant.

Method 1. using fast matrix power we can get $$$a_{3 \lfloor \frac{n}{3} \rfloor + 2}, a_{3 \lfloor \frac{n}{3} \rfloor + 1},a_{3 \lfloor \frac{n}{3} \rfloor}$$$, and $$$a_{3 \lfloor \frac{n}{3} \rfloor + n \% 3}$$$ is the answer

Method 2. It is well known that If you know the characteristic polynomial of matrix, then you can use polynomial multiplication instead of matrix product to get $$$(a_{3n+2},a_{3n+1},a_{3n},1)^T$$$ which is faster that Method 1, especially when the size of $$$A$$$ becomes bigger. Best method in general as I know (can't use NFT, since neither size of A is big nor 1,000,000,007 is NFT-friendly.)

Method 3. Note that the special $$$A$$$ can be diagonalized, thus there exist an invetible matrix $$$X$$$ such that

$$$ X^{-1} AX = diag(8,1,0,-1) $$$

thus we have

$$$ X^{-1} \begin{pmatrix} a_{3n+2} \\ a_{3n+1} \\ a_{3n} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = (X^{-1}AX) X^{-1} \begin{pmatrix} a_{3n-1} \\ a_{3n-2} \\ a_{3n-3} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = (X^{-1}AX)^n \; X^{-1} \begin{pmatrix} a_{2} \\ a_{1} \\ a_{0} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} $$$

We can calculate $$$X$$$ above by hand or using following SageMath Code:

A = matrix([[5,6,0,12],[3,2,0,4],[1,2,0,4],[0,0,0,1]])
A.eigenvalues()
X = A.eigenmatrix_right()[1]

Actually we can calculate $$$A^n$$$ with only 3-lines SageMath Code:

n = var('n')
A = matrix([[5,6,0,12],[3,2,0,4],[1,2,0,4],[0,0,0,1]])
A^n

and the last column of $$$A^n$$$ is

$$$ \begin{pmatrix} a_{3n+2} \\ a_{3n+1} \\ a_{3n} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{32}{21} \cdot 8^{n} - \frac{2}{3} \, \left(-1\right)^{n} - \frac{6}{7} \\ \frac{16}{21} \cdot 8^{n} + \frac{2}{3} \, \left(-1\right)^{n} - \frac{10}{7} \\ \frac{8}{21} \cdot 8^{n} - \frac{2}{3} \, \left(-1\right)^{n} + \frac{2}{7} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = \frac{1}{21} \begin{pmatrix} 2^{3n+5} - 14(-1)^{3n+2} \\ 2^{3n+4} - 14(-1)^{3n+1} \\ 2^{3n+3} - 14(-1)^{3n} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} -\frac{6}{7} \\ -\frac{10}{7} \\ \frac{2}{7} \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} $$$

    By using another approach based on the ideas in this blog, thinking of the +4 as impulses in the recurrence f(x+2) = f(x+1) + 2*f(x) we can end in a nicer formula using geometric sums: $$$\frac{4(\frac {1 - 8^{floor(N/3)}} {1-8} \cdot 2^{N mod 3 + 1} - \frac {1 - (-1)^{floor(N/3)}} {1-(-1)} \cdot (-1)^{N mod 3 + 1})}{3}$$$

    That becomes a max flow problem. Source -> virtual vertex for edge -> actual vertices -> sink, edges in (vertices -> sink) have capacity a[i], there's a valid answer iff max flow is M.

    Though it would be interesting if someone found a faster solution, since if a[i] = 1 we can solve this variation of bipartite matching using a dsu.

        In your version of the problem, the order doesn't matter. To find which food each one eats just check which edge in (virtual vertex for edge -> actual vertices) edges.

        Yes, your graph is the reverse of mine so it looks correct. I didn't remember the story in the problem so "edge" is person and "vertex" is food.

Not sure if it's commented before, problem E can be solved in O(n+m) by bfs. The key is thinking the process in reversed order, though I came up with it after the contest :(. 84843536

    If I can choose to play firstly or secondly in one round,we consider the next round:

    • if there exists one wining strategy,now I can win the game directly;

    • otherwise I can leave the situation to the other player and I can win also.

    Obviously I can also choose to lose the game.

    If I can only play firstly or secondly,now I should update the f/s in one round and go on.

    Yes! In your comp function, change a>=b to a>b. I tried your code with this modification and it is working fine. A better alternative is to use sort(a, a+n, greater<int>()). You won't have to write comp function again.

          C++ sort requires the comparison function to have strict weak ordering (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_ordering#Strict_weak_orderings) — if comp(a,b) is true then it means a has to be placed before b. If it finds a situation where comp(a,b) is true and comp(b,a) is true it throws an exception as it can't find a valid way to handle that.

          If your comparison function does return equal values as true then it will often work for some values as not every values is compared.

              It looks like I was slightly misremembering and there isn't an exception. It's just undefined behaviour and different compilers handle it differently. On the versions I've got locally the code below triggers an invalid comparator assert on MSVC and segmentation faults on g++ / clang++.

              #include <iostream>
              #include <algorithm>
              #include <vector>
              bool comp(long long int a, long long int b) { return a >= b; }
              int main() {
              
                std::vector<long long int> ll(32);
                std::sort(ll.begin(), ll.end(), comp);
                for (auto &i : ll) {
                  std::cerr << i << " ";
                }

    Each exterior angle of a polygon is 360/n, where n is number of sides. Thus (360/n)*x = 90 must be satisfied, which gives the relation x=n/4. Hence if n is divisible by 4 answer will be YES else NO

    ll z = y rounds y down (at least for positive y), so if it's close to an integer, but due to rounding errors is slightly below, then z and y will differ roughly by 1 To check if a floating point is close to integer you can use abs(floor(x) — x) <= some epsilon (but of course you don't need it in this problem)

Hi, Problem D, the expression (i % 3 == 2) is used in tutorial to add 4 new nodes to the answer. But how can we know this is the levels that should included in optimal solution? Could be another remainder, not? For example, (i % 3 == 1), or (i%3==0). Thank you.

    It is possible to add one more claw containing root if an only if for $$$i - 1$$$ and $$$i - 2$$$ it is not possible.

    Now we only need to directly check, that for $$$1$$$ and $$$2$$$ it's impossible and then use basic mathematical induction.

  Vote: I like it 0 Vote: I do not like it

DIV2 C was a good greedy

My Solution :

We sort a in descending order and w in ascending order. The logic is we have to maximize Max+Min for every friend,so we first give the maximum elements for each friend.Now every friend got one integer and that is his maximum integer.We will remove all these integers from array "a".Now we have to give each person a minimum integer.

We have to maximize the minimum integer given to each friend.Now say a friend requires y more integers,and the minimum is say x,then there should be atleast y-1 integers greater than or equal to x in a.So we given each friend the yth greatest available integer.

The reason for sorting w is, say one friend requires y elements and another requires z elements, we give the yth greatest integer for the first friend and y+zth greatest for second friend, a[y]+a[y+z],say y>z,then sum will be a[z]+a[z+y],the farther the integer is lesser it will be,so we have to satisfy the friend with lesser w.

My solution : 87000341

DeadlyCritic In problem E , you have told that if $$$s_i<=w_i$$$ , then we need to keep that person in end , but what to do in other case ? We can't simply print that person , order does matter , so how to determine that order.For example in sample input 4 , there are more than 1 people for whom $$$s_i>w_i$$$ holds for both plates they want , so what to do in that case ?

Here's an alternate solution for problem D: ` Let us define $$$dp_1[i]$$$ = maximum possible nodes we can colour yellow for an RBD of level i if the root node must also be coloured yellow and $$$dp_2[i]$$$ = maximum possible nodes we can colour yellow for an RBD of level $$$i$$$ if the root node must not be coloured yellow. Then, after making the observation that an RBD of level $$$i$$$ consists of a node connected to the roots of two RBD's of level $$$i - 2$$$ and one RBD of level $$$i - 1$$$, we get the following recursion relations : $$$dp_1[i] = 2dp_2[i - 2] + dp_2[i - 1]$$$ and $$$dp_2[i] = 2max(dp_1[i - 2], dp_2[i - 2]) + max(dp_1[i - 1], dp_2[i - 1])$$$. Then, the answer to each query is simply $$$max(dp_1[n], dp_2[n])$$$.

Know this is late, but I was able to get the dp transition for problem D by simplifying the graph. I realized that we only care about the claws, so I replaced the graph with a more compressed graph where each node is a claw, and an edge connects 2 nodes iff the claws shared an adjacent edge in the original graph. Then it's a lot easier to get the transition and find the pattern. I filled out 3 whole pages for this problem XD.
