Huh, as I read this, my solution to E seems to have zero things common with editorial as well. I solve $$$O(nk)$$$ problems where each element is $$$0$$$ or $$$1$$$ with some probability (depending on its position). For binary strings original problem can be solved while keeping two variables — what is the optimal cost if I have an interval opened and what if I don't have it opened. Using that insight, for each prefix I count number of sequences that will lead me to each state of dp (and there are $$$O(n^2)$$$ states of this dp for each prefix, so $$$O(n^3)$$$ in total, so my solution works in $$$O(n^4k)$$$.

    Right, this is exactly my approach as well!

    By the way, do you have a proof for the reduction to 0/1 problems? It feels right intuitively, but I can't formulate easily why :)

    I believe this was roughly scott_wu's approach as well, though I think he optimized the DP down to n^2 transitions. I think this is actually not so different from the official solution; once you observe that it suffices to solve the 0-1 problem, the dp to solve the 0-1 version is really equivalent to the editorial's; you just got there without proving the 0-1 reduction.

    You don't need any just make one submission(Accepted or wrong answer doesn't matter) in a rated contest then you will reach 3000 in 9-10 days because 2_din_me_rating_double xD!
