কি অবস্থা মামা? (That's Bengali for "What's up dude?")

I am super excited to invite you to participate in Codeforces Round 735 (Div. 2) which will be held on Jul/29/2021 17:35 (Moscow time). This round is rated for future LGM participants whose current rating is $$$\le 2099$$$.

Scoring distribution: $$$750 - 1250 - 1750 - 2000 - 3000$$$.

      Did you have a hacky solution or just random thing which passed pretests or was it actually something close to the editorial's solution?

Don't leave a single question easy make all of them hard. So I can finally quit! first question take 2 min rest --------- its like an appreciation token for participation. Codeforces is a platform where top 2000 people solve question rest all see the standing page after doing A question. Again div zero contest. There is no coolness in setting a hard contest , it should be a balanced one . increment in my preparation <<<<<<<<<<<<< increment in hardness. A year ago when I knew nothing i was able to solve at least two A B and C if its of graph or standard one. Now after months of practice I'm able to solve only A . A contest is of 2: 00 hr for me its of 5 minutes . Thanks codeforces for demotivating me again! For people less than 1500 its is buzzer round who solve A faster. thanks queueforces for ruining this buzzer round also.

    prob C is easy if u just generate xors for yourself, it's some weird series of number, but in some time you should be able to find pattern in it (i started this too late)

    i found out that for numbers 0-15, 16-31, 32-47 etc difference between MAX and MIN is always 16

    Only divisors of N-1 are important. Find array d[i] = number of arrays where i divides all elements (the answer is easy to find from that array). d[1] = 2^(N-1), all other d[i]'s are either 0 or 1 (proven by the following checking algorithm): start from leaves, it is uniquely determined whether that node is selected before it's 'parent' (k cannot divide both x and x+1). If it divides neither it's 0, if the check finishes it's 1.

        To be honest, that was only an intuition during the contest, basically, for every edge you have options for which ending node you select first. Since it's a tree there will be no cycles, so it's a good ordering. My first idea was $$$N!$$$, but that didn't work with sample. Probably double counting something. Definitely not a proof, let's wait for editorial :)

          As _Ash__ wrote below, it's simply the number of ways to orient all edges. In different ways there are different arrays, that simply follows from a mathematical induction like one you mentioned — starting from leaves and rising up.

    You can transform the situation a bit like this: You have a tree, and you have to make each edge directed. The value of each node is its indegree. The problem becomes a lot more approachable now.

Difficulty in my opinion: E > B > C > D > A, B is my nightmare, the most right thing that I do is to skip B after 40 minutes of struggling.

In problem D you just need to know one trick: A string that contains n number of "a" and n-1 number of "a" separated by others (like 'bc' or 'b') can satisfy the condition.

    Check all pairs from the right-most one (N, N — 1).
    As K cannot be greater than 100 and Ai || Aj will always be strictly less than 2N, a brute-force solution should work.
    The loop is to be broken when the maximum possible value for the current pair is lower than the current max value (max. possible value would be i * j — k * 0).

Also, codeforces is very weird with rating around 2100, it's much easier to drop to high 2000's and get a bunch of rating in div2, than to get rating in div1 with low 2100's.

The round have two problems of Bitwise-operators, and they are hard for people like me to solve. And I think so many great participants lost their ratings in this contest, so maybe we can make this contest unrated for them.

But you ask me... I think it's okay to keep this round rated. But I suggest, don't write those problems in one contest again!

    Lets take if you take $$$i=n, j=n-1$$$ the worst case gives you as a result $$$n(n-1)-k(a_n|a_{n-1})$$$ with $$$a_n|a_{n-1}$$$ maximized. It's easy to check that $$$a_n|a_{n-1} \leq 2n$$$ so you know that $$$n(n-1)-k(a_n|a_{n-1}) \leq n^2-n-2kn$$$

    Lets take $$$i=(n-a)$$$ and $$$j=(n-b)$$$ and take the best case= $$$a_i=0, a_j=0$$$, you get $$$(n-a)(n-b)=n^2-(a+b)n+ab$$$.

    Now the key observation is to notice that:

    $$$n^2-n-2kn>n^2-(a+b)n+ab$$$

    iff

    $$$(a+b)n-n-2kn>ab$$$

    iff

    $$$(a+b-1-2k)n>ab$$$

    which is true if $max(a,b) > 201$ so you only have to check the last $$$200$$$ elements of the array

In problem B, since 0 <= a[i] <= n, we have a[i] | a[j] <= 2n and k*a[i]|a[j] <= 200n. Then for big enough n, let try all pairs among last m indices (we will choose m later). We can prove that the result will be in there. The worst case for last two indices is: n(n-1)-200n (and notice that the answer is at least that number). The best case for the uncheck indices is: (n-m)(n-m-1). We need to have: n(n-1)-200n >= (n-m)(n-m-1) or n(2m-200) >= m^2+m. In the contest, I choose m=400 with n >= 800.

What's the point of setting problems in this manner. There should be a certain level of uniformity in the increase of the standard of problems. Can't just set a problem having a rating around 1000 and then just move to 1800-2000 rated type problems. Looks like the problem setter was just trying to show off his skills.Totally demotivating for newcomers. There should always be a balance among the distribution of problems. I urge MikeMirzayanov to not allow these kinds of people to set problems for such a highly rated platform who just want to show off their skills and nothing else. I believe that even the high-rated coders will agree with me on this point.

where as when submitted same logic in cpp it passes. https://codeforces.me/contest/1554/submission/124191191

Please give some extra time to python coders and please try to keep time constraint flexible for every language.

Great Round! Problems were good and required thinking! I found problem B to be the best! (out of A B and C)

      Let x = (ai | aj)
      the max x you can get is 2n because ai<=n
      So for each x(0--->2n) you should know the best i and j to maximize the answer i*j - k*x 
      So greedily you have to know the two biggest indices i and j so that ai is a submask of x and aj is a submask of x
      
      You can solve it by SOS

It is a perfect guide how not to make contests. All problems except D are complete trash, you just look at them and instantly realize they are trash.

      Because they match the typical patterns of bad problems:

      1. You are given an object, you need to find another object when some complicated condition is true.
      2. You are given an object, you need to calculate the number of ways to construct some complicated object when some condition is true.

      You, being a coordinator, must know it.

          No. Reread and pay attention to the word "complicated".

        Most problems match those patterns, just usually implicitly. In this case, the statements were simplified so that you don't have to go through trashy stories to get to the problems. I think a majority of people prefer it that way. Problems C and E especially can be rewritten in a way that are less explicit, the author just chose to present them like this (and I prefer it that way).

        It's the solutions that matter, not the problems.

How is "yaaaazaaa" a valid answer for n = 9 in problem D. Isn't substring "aaa" occurring twice in the string??

I got a high rank in this Round,but I still think this Round a not really good one.That is,Problem E is too easy as the final problem of a Div 2 only Round.

Besides,Problem D is too easy.I think it will not be harder than *1200.

        maybe, if div2 round was too easy, participate in div1?

              Maybe, but I think the main reason is that he is good at using the computer and he has a throughout understanding of the Secure Shell protocol(SSH).

    It's true that Karry5307 use ssh to cheat in Chinese OI contest and he should be punished.
    But we don't need to demonize ssh itself.It's not such a terrible thing if we use it properly.
    Just calm down.

    some explaination:

    Karry5307 (very probably) cheated in the provience team secletion test.

    Most agree that he got the address of others' computer the day before and then used ssh to copy their codes in the contest. Of course he rewrited them by himself.

      An excerpt from the official document(Chinese):

      Rough Translation: According to [some document], the provincial team of Hunan(a province in southern China) consists of 5 Class A members and 9 Class B members. According to the reports received during the public notice period, competitor HN-0117(sidenote: this is Karry5307) copied other people's code during the contest, thus resulting in zero marks in two of the six problems.

      So he didn't get into the provincial team at last XD

      Actually, before the contest, he said something like this

      The last sentence means: "What can I do during the contest? If I didn't get a Class A place in the team, I'm performing badly in the contest."

      Looking back at that, this is somehow funny.

      It's really a shame that he cheated in such kind of large-scaled formal competition. In fact, his own strength is relatively strong. He could have achieved his ideal through his own efforts, but now he has to be away from OI and CP. As a younger student than him of the same school, I feel very sorry for this.
