For the second time, the Italian national contest (valid for the selection of the Italian IOI team) will be mirrored into an online contest. The contest is primarily intended for high school contestants, but everyone is welcome to participate!
The contest timing will be USACO-like: it will be open for 14 hours but you will be able to compete for up to 5 hours (you can decide when to "start" your time window, after the login). Participation will be available upon registration to the Italian trainings website (localized also in english).
1. The problems will be available in both English and Italian.
2. The time window will start at 2017 September 15th, 10:00 CEST and will end at 22:00:00 CEST.
3. Tasks will be IOI-like (with graders) and you will have 5 hours to solve them.
4. The languages allowed are: C, C++.
Note: you can decide when to start your 5 hour time window, but remember that the contest will end at 23:59:59 CEST regardless of your time window.
If you want to participate, you must:
- Visit the training website: https://training.olinfo.it

- When the contest starts, you will see a red button. Click it when you want to start your 5 hour time window!
- Good luck and have fun!
