Hello!↵
↵
Today (20.3.), another monthly Cook-off takes place. It should last for 2.5 hours (21:30 to 00:00 IST) — [starting time](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=CodeChef%3A+March+Cook-Off+2016&iso=20160320T2130&p1=44&ah=2&am=30).↵
↵
**Contest link:** [https://www.codechef.com/COOK68](https://www.codechef.com/COOK68)↵
↵
There will be 5 problems of varying difficulties — I think they aren't that hard (not for lack of trying on my part), there should be a lot more full scores than last month :D. Feel free to discuss the problems / provide feedback in the comments (after the contest ends).↵
↵
In order to participate, you only need to have a CodeChef account. If you don't have one, you can register [here](https://www.codechef.com/signup).↵
