Hello, Codeforces!↵
↵
[UTPC](https://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/utpc/index.html), the competitive programming organization at the University of Texas at Austin, is happy to invite you to participate in our first ever April Fool's contest which will be held on [Monday, April 1, 2024 at 6:00PM UTC-5 (CDT)](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=UTPC+April+Fool%27s+Contest+2024&iso=20240401T18&p1=24&ah=2).↵
↵
You will be given many wacky problems and 2 hours to solve them, with standard ICPC scoring. Anyone is welcome to participate! This is a **team** contest, meaning that you are allowed to compete in teams of up to 3 members (it is totally acceptable to compete without teammates as well). This is (of course) not an official Codeforces round, and is thus unrated.↵
↵
Prizes will be available to UT students competing in person in Austin (at the Gates-Dell Complex), or online.↵
↵
The problems were prepared and tested by [user:mwen,2024-03-29], [user:fishy15,2024-03-29], [user:sg2themax,2024-03-29], [user:blueberryJam,2024-03-29], Zhuolie Xie, [user:fishy15,2024-03-29], [user:zekigurbuz,2024-03-29], [user:fishy15,2024-03-29], [user:porkchops,2024-03-29], [user:DylanSmith,2024-03-29], [user:speedycatfish,2024-03-29], and [user:fishy15,2024-03-29].↵
↵
And also a huge thanks to [user:chickencode,2024-03-29] and [user:speedycatfish,2024-03-29] for planning logistics!↵
