Elimination Round will start today, 14:30 (UTC) and only contestants who have passed Qualification Round will be eligible to participate.

Score for each solved problem is calculated based on these values:

  • n = No. of accepted submissions
  • t = Contestant's submission time
  • p = Number of contestant's wrong attempts

To receive the latest news fast, follow us on twitter: @bayan

Update 1: The Elimination round is over, and let's face it: It was far from good!

Yes, we're aware of all the issues, and we know that nothing is more nerve-racking than facing those issues during a competitive contest. So, first thing first, we'd like to sincerely apologize for all the inconveniences caused.

In last hours, we thought that the contest has become too hard, so we made a major wrong decision: omitting a hard problem and adding a simple problem as our first question without enough time. Hint: never make any changes to the problem set in a hurry.

Update 2: Editorial is on the way. Source codes will also be avalible in a few hours.

Update 3: Unfortunately we have found some cheaters. As mentioned before they will be banned for ever from Bayan Programming Contests.

Update 4: The editorial is now available.

      but 't' is not number — it is amount of time. Did you mean that t is I don't know.. number of minutes from start to submission?

      and will we know about WA/AC immediately or after contest?

Problem A was rejudged in the middle of the contest, and it went down from 500+ solves to just 36. (That's a 1% success rate for submissions.) There's a crash every 3 seconds, and test data doesn't load half the time. This is probably the worst contest ever organized...

Should I input/output to file or standard input/output ? In the qualification round I used stdin/out and still got AC. Now they say I need to use file input/output. But what file ?? For input it's probably like "A.txt" but whatabout output ? Also, sometimes it's really hard to submit/download input. And while I was writing this comment, my problem A got AC with the exact same code of 8 previous attempts :| Maybe we should hold another elimination round, on codeforces platform instead ?

    Let's try to construct the path backwards. The inverse path begins on the biggest number of the input.

    Suppose you have already stepped on some tiles, and you need to step on a next tile. Note that as we're going backwards, the final number on a tile is defined by the first time we step on it. For this reason, when going to the next tile, you can only use the tiles that you have already stepped on previously.

    So do a BFS from the tile you're on to the next tile you need to step (using only tiles already stepped) and check if you can reach the next tile in the number of steps required. If the bfs returns a smaller distance than required, you can add any multiple of 2 to the number of steps in the path by simply going back and forth between two squares.

        If you are checking in order of increasing values using BFS, two suitable squares will always exist unless it is the last one(which is the same condition as two highest values on the grid must differ by 1).

      Explicit BFS is not really needed. You just need to prove that a backward path exists, you don't need to find it. The solution to the problem is "YES" if and only if the following 4 conditions hold: - (1) All numbers are different - (2) Every pair of neighbors have different parity. - (3) Every tile, except the MAX, has a larger neighbor. - (4) The MAX tile has a MAX-1 neighbor.

      Condition (3) ensures you have a backward path from any tile other than the maximum, and condition (2) ensures this path is of the right parity.

      UPDATE: Forget this... it's wrong... BFS is needed, because otherwise the path may be too long. Example: 1x4 grid with values 2 3 4 1.

The problems are interesting, except the straightforward implementation tasks A, B and E.

Apologies for having the wrong flag next to my name on the scoreboard, I only now realized that the nationality is relevant, not the residence.

About the onsite finals, https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/iran/safety-and-security does not sound very reassuring. What is your opinion?

    What is your nationality? Again, the reason I'm asking is that because it may move my country from TOP-21 into TOP-20 :)

      Sounds accurate, and slightly less worrying than Iran. It's not my intention to offend anyone.

        This phrase "Kosovo’s independence remains an emotive issue for many Serbs." doesn't sound accurate to me because Kosovo is not independent country. Moreover, it's an interesting question — organizers didn't specify what nationality means in profile settings and didn't specify what country means — for example, Hong Kong and Chinese Taipei are Chinese provinces in my opinion so do people from those regions need additional spot in the final?

          Not to start any fights or offend anyone, but in my opinion Taiwan and China are different (I think most people who were on this year's IOI would agree) so they should get different spots in my opinion. However the question what exactly does nationality mean is still valid.

            For the purpose of this contest, a nation is what appears on the dropdown list on Bayan's website. If it's not on the list, it's a province.

            For the purposes of everything else, this is a complicated question and this is not the place to discuss it.

    The visible surface is at least the sum of the highest towers in each column, plus the highest towers in each row, plus the top surfaces.

    For each k, you want to minimize the number of columns and rows that contain a tower taller than k. Put the k highest towers in the smallest (by perimeter) rectangle that can contain them. This rectangle is either a square, or has sides that differ by 1, or has one side length equal to min(n,m). So, this is the lower bound for the area, and since we can actually do that for all k at the same time, it's also the upper bound.

    To calculate the number of ways, let's say you have the number of ways to pack the tallest a*b towers in an a*b rectangle, with a<=b, and want to calculate the number of ways to pack the (a+1)*b tallest in an (a+1)*b rectangle. You can extend the rectangle in either 2 or 4 directions (4 when a=b<min(n,m), 2 otherwise), and arrange b towers along the side in 2^(b-1) ways.

      About the number of ways, how to handle the part where the a*b rectangle lies on one of the edge (therefore only 3 directions to extent)?

        Don't even consider the n*m grid. Imagine just extending the rectangle (which is floating in space) until it has size n*m, and then placing it on the grid in the end.

    Do the steps n-1 times: find out the edges that connect a new tower(toweres not yet filled with water). Choose the lowest cost, let the cost be x, then we make all other towers that is filling with water height at least x. The time needed is the total volume of water at that moment.

nerve-racking -> nerve-wracking

first thing first -> first things first

apology -> apologize...

BTW so happy that I didn't participate.

Was this contest organized by same people as 2 years ago? I have a feeling that this is coming from completely new group of people which have too much ambition without anything to back it up.

    Some duplicated accounts and a few more cheaters detected. Final rankings and tshirt winners will be announced soon.
