CODE FESTIVAL 2017 Qualification Round A will be held on Saturday (time). The writer is sugim48 and DEGwer.
This is one of the three qualification rounds of CODE FESTIVAL. In total, 20 foreign students will qualify in three rounds (Check the official site for detailed rules). If you are eligible for the onsite contest, please don't forget to fill the form at https://krs.bz/rhd-itm/m/codefes2017_en. Please check the detail of the tournament at http://codeforces.me/blog/entry/53502.
The contest duration is 2 hours, and there will be 6 problems. The first 4 problems are mainly used for choosing domestic students and much easier than other tournament competitions. However, we added two more problems and we hope these are interesting and challenging enough for choosing 20 qualifiers. Note that there is no time penalty for incorrect submissions. The time penalty is MAX, not SUM.
The point values are 100 — 200 — 400 — 700 — 1600 — 1600. If you are unfamiliar with AtCoder System, 2X-point problem in AtCoder is as hard as TopCoder's d1 X-point problem.
Let's discuss problems after the contest.
