Unofficial hints for Codeforces Round #682 (Div. 2) (A — D)
As promised, here are some (nested) hints for Codeforces Round #682 (Div. 2).
1438A - Специфичные вкусы Андре
Solve some small tests on paper.
Can you make the sum of each subarray equal to its length?
Suppose that the answer is NO
. Which property should hold for the array $$$a$$$?
What happens if $$$l_1 = r_1$$$?
The answer is YES
if there is a pair of equal elements in the array $$$b$$$. What happens if there are no equal elements?
Look at the binary representation of the sum of each subarray. Are there equal binary representations?

Do a chess coloring on the grid. Can you make all differences odd?
How does the xor of all the array change after every operation?
The xor remains constant. Let it be $$$x$$$. If you make all elements equal, what's the xor of the resulting array?
If $$$n$$$ is even, $$$x = 0$$$. So the answer is NO
if the starting xor is not $$$0$$$.
If $$$n$$$ is odd, you can set $$$a[i] = x$$$ for each $$$i$$$, and their xor is $$$x$$$. The answer is always YES
.
In both cases, if the answer is YES
, you can solve the problem by making each $$$a[i]$$$ equal to $$$x$$$. Can you make $$$a[1] = x$$$ first?
Now you want to "spread" $$$x$$$ in all the array. You already have some $$$a[i] = x$$$. Are there three indices such that $$$a[i] \oplus a[j] \oplus a[k] = x$$$?
I wasn't able to solve E and F. If you did, you may want to add your hints in the comments.
