Hi everyone, I'm a grade 10 student from Hong Kong and recently, I have prepared a programming contest for some secondary school students (grade 7 — 12). They are mostly (70%) beginners (Learnt OI for a month only) and some of them knows some intermediate concepts / algorithms (like greedy, binary search, partial sum etc, actually not really intermediate stuff).

I'm also the first time making a contest and therefore I want to ask for opinions / suggestions towards the problems. Like how are they done? Would they be too easy / hard? Is the problem statement clear enough? Are the subtasks score distribution appropirate? Are the examples provided appropirate? How can the problems be improved?

Problem statement

Btw this contest will be run on Codeforces and in IOI-style, are there any things that need to be careful with?

Hope someone can give me some opinions towards my contest, thanks for y'alls help!
