Hello Codeforces!
The series of Educational Rounds continues thanks to the support of the Neapolis University Pafos.
On Jun/03/2025 17:35 (Moscow time) Educational Codeforces Round 179 (Rated for Div. 2) will start.
This round will be rated for the participants with rating lower than 2100. It will be held on extended ICPC rules. The penalty for each incorrect submission until the submission with a full solution is 10 minutes. After the end of the contest, you will have 12 hours to hack any solution you want. You will have access to copy any solution and test it locally.
You will be given 6 or 7 problems and 2 hours to solve them.
Almost all of the problems in the round were invented and prepared by me. I would like to thank Ivan BledDest Androsov for the problem that made the round more balanced.
And once again, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the round coordinators: Ivan BledDest Androsov and Mikhail awoo Piklyaev for improving the quality of the problems and helping with their preparation.
And of course, huge thanks to Mike MikeMirzayanov Mirzayanov for great systems Polygon and Codeforces.
Good luck to all the participants!
