Thanks for an interesting problemset :) And I was also surprised by CodeChef working almost perfect at the beginning of the contest:)

But why did you made problemset so hard for novice programmers? Today among users who made at least one attempt only 25% finished with nonzero number of solved tasks. Maybe you should give simpler first task next time?

    I made the first problem this time even easier than last time (in Augut 2014) and it didn't really help. I guess I should just keep trying.

      I think we need a hard contest once in a while, and problem A wasn't that hard. Problems were very nice and new type
