For problem G the editorial has the swapped inequality it should be suffixMax_p >= k(Q2_front), because that indicates there is a larger k in the suffix of Q1 that highest priority person in Q2 would be waiting behind.
E was subtle
For problem D we can consider a dp approach: let $$$dp_i$$$ the minimum ammount of coins for reach the position $$$i$$$, thus:
We can calculate solutions from $$$dp_1$$$ and choose $$$\min\limits_{1 \le i \le m}{dp_i}$$$. The basic idea is to choose between pay $$$b_i$$$ or $$$a_i$$$ for all $$$i$$$.
can you explain the first sample test case of D. the answer should be swap with place 2 and pay 3+8 = 11. how is it 14?
If we swap with the 2nd position, you also must pay $$$b_n = 5$$$ because initially you will stand in $$$n+1$$$ place and this give you $$$16$$$. I'll simulate the solution for the first test case
Consider $$$dp_4 = 9$$$, so we move on to $$$dp_3$$$, we must choose:
$ So, $$$dp_3 = 11$$$. The second part of the $$$\min$$$ function represent that we consider took $$$b_{i+1}$$$ instead of $$$a_{i+1}$$$, in this case $$$dp_3$$$ choose $$$b_4$$$ because if we want to reach $$$i=3$$$, it will be optimal to choose $$$a_3+b_4$$$. At this moment we have $$$dp_3=11$$$, so we will calculate $$$dp_2$$$ as follows: $$$dp_2 = \min(3+11, 3+11-6+8) = \min(14, 16)$$$ so $$$dp_2 = 14$$$ and actually this is the minimum value for $$$dp_i, 1 \le i \le 2$$$. This solution says that is optimal to choose $$$a_2+a_3+b_4$$$.
CAN you please explain how did this expression for the dp come? what i mean is that what is the logic behind this expression

There's actually quite an elegant implementation for problem F:
https://codeforces.net/contest/1945/submission/252463604
Please guys, l'd like to know why I het a WA? Problem F: https://codeforces.net/contest/1945/submission/252370876
Thanks.
At problem B,
"At the moment x, there will be fireworks in the sky, released at moments [x, x+a, …, x+a⋅⌊m/a⌋]"
Please explain.
Let's consider the first launch station.
When the station has its first launch, you can construct the following interval $$$I=[a, a+m]$$$, where $$$I$$$ represents all the moments in which a firework $$$x$$$ is visible.
Let's say $$$a=6$$$ and $$$m=4$$$, then $$$I=[6,10]$$$. If we want to count the maximum number of fireworks in this interval, it's clearly $$$\lfloor\frac{10}{6}\rfloor=1$$$, which is when $$$x=6$$$ (the next $$$x$$$ is $$$12\notin I$$$).
Now you do the same for the second launch station $$$b=7$$$, and the answer becomes $$$\lfloor\frac{10}{6}\rfloor + \lfloor\frac{11}{7}\rfloor= 2$$$.
Formally, $$$ans=\lfloor\frac{a+m}{a}\rfloor + \lfloor\frac{b+m}{b}\rfloor$$$ , which is $$$2 + \lfloor\frac{m}{a}\rfloor + \lfloor\frac{m}{b}\rfloor$$$
Problem F can be simulated with an ordered statistic tree :p

Indeed: https://codeforces.net/contest/1945/submission/263511065
Solving B using binary search - The key to solve this problem lies in the concept of binary search on the answer. We aim to find the largest integer value x such that x * a — a <= m.
We start by initializing a binary search range with st = 0 and en set to a sufficiently large value, say 10^20 (we can't in c++ so use python). Then, we perform a binary search within this range. At each step, we calculate the midpoint mid and check if mid * a — a <= m. If this condition holds true, it means we can increase our search range. Thus, we update st = mid. Otherwise, we need to decrease our search range, so we update en = mid — 1. We repeat this process until we find the maximum valid value for x. This process has a time complexity of O(log n).
We apply the same binary search approach to determine the maximum number of fireworks launched at intervals of b, 2b, 3b, and so forth.
Finally, we sum the maximum values obtained from both binary searches to obtain the total maximum number of fireworks launched within the given time frame m. This sum represents our answer. https://codeforces.net/contest/1945/submission/252638271
You definitely overcomplicated this. Simply find LCM of a and b to find the first time when fireworks are launched at the same time. Then, simply calculate how many fireworks would be launched between common start time and m.
Very simple: https://codeforces.net/contest/1945/submission/254889075
In C sample 1.
In that problem n/2 is not rounded to an integer, it may be a decimal value
Thanks solved
Well For the Problem E only one swap is sufficient in every case ? my solution got accepted but don't know how....? can anyone explain
nvm, i got it lol good contest btw
For C,why n/2, it's a real number didn't mention in the problem statement?
Can someone please help me in finding my mistake for submssion 252896905 to problem F?
I think the problem G's statement is still not 100% clear. If 2 students with the same priority, finishing their dishes at the same time, who will go to the queue first?
I tried to solve this solve this by assuming the one who goes out eating first will come back first, but apparently this seems to not be the case. The comparator function in the solution prioritize the student with higher eating time first. This seems very unnatural to me.
Though the problem idea didn't change much if a more strictly description was added. This is still a cool problem. Though this bug me for hours, not know where I was wrong.
Question does say
"If several schoolchildren return at the same time, they will return to the queue in ascending order of their si."
Can anyone explain E? Not able to get it from the tutorial.
We know this binary search gives a number which is always <=X. (If you are not sure about that, you can try some examples.)
Assume P is position of X.
If we change this result and P, we can find X. Because only once we asked to P. And smaller number will give same answer(make l = mid). So we will get same index before don't swapped P and result.
Got it, Thanks

why this solution is giving runtime error on testcase 2 in problem D
in problem H why if a bit is 0 in more than 2 numbers then its 0 in the AND ? i understand that if we have 3 or more numbers with bit x 0 in them then it'll always be zero in the finally AND but sometimes we can have only 1 number with bit x equal to 0 and still the finally AND will have that bit 0 if we dont consider it in the red numbers ? the middle paragraph is unclear hope somebody rewrites it in a more clear way , thanks
Your understanding is correct. Suppose we are dealing with $$$x^{th}$$$ bit. There are 3 cases:
I've added more details here
Yea thanks I got it , it wasn't clear at the beginning I feel like it would've been more clear if they stated why we try all numbers where the bit is 0 in no more than 2 but now that I get it I feel like it's self explanatory
Understanding problem statement C is 80% and solving it is 20%. Problem statement of [problem:C] is really confusing.
for D question is tough to understand
Someone please explain what this line means in tutorial for problem H: "We will iterate through each of these numbers as one of the red numbers, and iterate through the second one for n " , where are we iterating for second number and how? Need some explanation .
Problem D editorial contains typo, $$$b_k$$$<$$$a_k$$$ should be there.
Problem D
before reaching the position m why not simply take the minimum of a[i] and b[i] ?? and then consider the sum of pref and bSum ??
something like this
int n,m; cin >> n >> m;
i did same during practice for D void solve() { ll n, m; cin >> n >> m;
}
Problem B: Please explain this line: At the moment x, there will be fireworks in the sky, released at moments [x, x+a, …, x+a⋅⌊m/a⌋[user:Gadget].
Hey anyone can you tell me about what is the wrong with the constraints for the problem C here. I would like to know what is the error in my code here. I can't figure it out
void solve() { ll n; cin >> n; string s; cin >> s;
}
Problem F. Kirill and Mushrooms can actually be solved using Fenwick Tree:
Let us fix the number of mushrooms for a potion. Let this number be $$$k \leq n$$$. Now we have to maximize the minimum value that we choose for this potion. This number is the $$$k-th$$$ maximum, lets call this number $$$mxmin$$$. And we update the answer with $$$ans=min(ans,mxmin*k)$$$.
Fenwick Tree allow us to find the $$$k-th$$$ maximum, wich is equivalent to findind the $$$(rem - k + 1)-minimum$$$ with BinaryLifting. Where $$$rem$$$ is the remaining number of mushrooms. You can find how to do this in this blog
When we go from $$$k$$$ mushrooms to $$$k+1$$$ mushrooms we have to update the FenwickTree by subracting the value of the $$$p[k]$$$ mushroom.
See the code for any other detail: My submission
For problem F you can just use order statistic tree and use find_by_order to solve in nlogn time.
I think there is an error in editorial of problem D
...if jth person is the first person with Aj < Bj and for i>k>j, kth person can't have Ak<Bk. In the editorial its given Ak<Bk, but is jth is the 1st person then, it should be Bk>Ak.
what test case does this miss for D problem cant we just smaller between a[i] and b[i] as we can anyways stop at any index.
