soryy, you can't. You should be enrolled in any college degree to participate in this event.
Note: Contest will start in about an hour.
Nice contest enjoyed it , could someone tell me the solution for D , I just checked if graph is bipartite for graph 1 and 2 , then maintaining the colors of nodes when I color graph2 , I try and check if graph1 can be bipartite or not , if can't then graph2s bipartite coloring is also false and hence case 3.(with this logic got wrong answer on 3) and if I just checked if both graphs are bipartite I got wrong answer on 52 (even though this logic is clearly wrong not maintaining the coloring of graph1 nodes)
I too got wa on tc 52, here is what i do to resolve issues : just maintain a common adjacency of graph 1 and graph 2 and then check bipartite nature of this. But firstly check bipartite nature of graph 1 alone.
damn ya nice idea makes sense thanks , i was not even close :pray:
Great questions.
glad you liked
C is such a good question , couldnt even try C cuz of D sadly
You can literally transport to anywhere except some indices using L and L+1 length swaps
ya had fun observing this
