TheForces is great but... Starts a little bit late. That might cause insomnia. Please upvote if you agree and downvote if you disagree.

    I think the solution is O(n^2) with all values in the array a and c being multiples of m.

      m can have maximum of 1344 factors so it will be O(1344*1344).

    I tried it out with Fast IO. The input for this problem is very large it seems.

      Thanks for this info. I guess this contest is of no use then.

        Why do you think so? I felt the problems were clever, regardless of the constraints. Fast IO is a pretty common thing, and it is assumed to be used by everyone.

        "I guess this contest is of no use then."

        Shouldn't you be glad that you learned about fast IO in an unrated contest?

    I guess that's because you don't have fast IO!

    If $$$l_1+r_1 > l_2 + r_2$$$, then the probability of Alice's winning is higher than Bob's.

    You can check the proof in the editorial here.

      Just curious who choose this as problem A? It is easy to guess, but very hard to prove.
