Hi everyone!

I would like to invite you to participate in April Clash at HackerEarth. The contest is scheduled to start at April 22, 2300 hrs IST. The contest will last for 24 hours so everyone should be able to find some time to comfortably participate.

There will be six tasks in the problemset. Five of them are standard algorithmic problems with partial solutions allowed — you get points for every test that your solution passed. And the last task is an approximate problem — your score for this task depends on how good your solution is compared to the current best solution.

architrai, vedaanta, akshay_miterani, k_sudharsan,me (harshil) and Abhinav Gupta are the authors of this problemset. The testing was done by me (harshil), Xsquare and Arterm

I hope that everyone from beginners to experienced contestants will be able to find some problem that challenges and interests them. In case you find all problems too easy there is always the approximate challenge to tackle.

As always, r3gz3n was a great help, and I would like to thank him for taking care of all the technical aspects of contest preparation.

While problem solving is rewarding enough on its own, there will be some added incentive for you to do well.

Top5 of leaderboard will receive some nice prizes:
