For Rocket bonus, you can check 1 then 2 then 3 etc. while recording p[] values. When you want to search for the answer do not include already searched values. which will turn 1073741853 to 1073741823. which can be done with 30 iteration.

I guess that solution to F is exactly the same as my one from this comment: http://codeforces.net/blog/entry/60806#comment-447283, but here author is just collecting and keeping polynomials from heavy path.

        No I doesn't work like that, because for 3D segtree (which you almost always never need because you can remove a dimension with sweep or something) you are querying for three constraints.

        So its something like Q(A and B and C) where A,B,C are [left,right] range query in some dimension.

        But using three one dimension is like Q(A) + Q(B) + Q(C).

For div2 F, what I tried was merge all nots and mark it at some other operation node(with help of a xor store for each node). Now I believe the tree is complete binary tree . So if a leaf node is to be altered I can go down to that node and use the stored values in intermediatory nodes(as we do in a segment tree). The complexity for each such query would be O(log N) I think. So overall complexity should be : O(Nlog N). Even then my code gives TLE. Can someone point out if I am going wrong.

    If I understand correctly, you think that tree depth can be maximum log(N). But it is wrong, because you can build edges only to the left or only to the right, so the depth will be N.

In problem E, we can eliminate another coordinate from the data structure by taking advantage of the fact that we can process queries offline, so we can sort them by 0-th coordinate. This results in a O(nlogn) solution that uses only simple 1D Fenwick tree with min operation as the data structure.

I think that Div 1. E can be solved with a simple segment tree.

First, just as the tutorial says, we check the possibility of "INCORRECT". Then, each of the m moments can be treated as a open-ended 3D-box, i.e. denote the moment as (xi, yi, zi), if xi < xl, the restriction for knowing the moment (x, y, z) is "CLOSED" using this knowledge will be x ≤ xi, if xl ≤ xi ≤ xr, there will be no restriction for x, and if xi > xr, the restriction will be x ≥ xi. The same goes for yi and zi. Putting the 3 restrictions together gives you a open-ended 3D-box. The query is actually asking whether each point is in any of them.

This is not difficult as it seems to be. First, there are actually 8 kinds of different boxes, regarding the  ≥  or  ≤  sign. We can deal with them by mirroring the coordinate and do the same process 8 times, so we only need to focus on {(x, y, z)|x ≤ xi, y ≤ yi, z ≤ zi} situations. This is done by a scanning line trick. We sort both the queries and the boxes by descending x coordinate. Then each time we need to update something like {(y, z)|y ≤ yi, z ≤ zi} when we meet a box, which is simply done by a segment tree in the range of [1, ymax], maintaining the maximum value of zi on yi so that there is a box covering {(y, z)|y = yi, z ≤ zi}.

    Complexity of your solution is definitely not as you described. Even for 10000 queries on the test of type:

    2 100000 10000
    2 2 2
    3 3 3
    100000 100000 1
    100000 100000 2
    ...
    100000 100000 100000
    99999 99999 99999
    99999 99999 99999
    ...
    99999 99999 99999
    

    your solution works in more than 2s on CF. So for 100000 queries it works almost 30s. https://ideone.com/VnJcp3

    I looked through your code and complexity of your solution looks like O(m + log(x·y·z)) per query. These lines of code:

        if(tree->p.size()<=LEAF_SIZE||(tl.x==th.x&&tl.y==th.y&&tl.z==th.z)){
            for(Point &p:tree->p)
                if(in_box(ql,qh,p))return true;
            return false;
        }
    

    can check all m points through recursive call. I checked it for this test and your in_box(ql,qh,p) above was called 100000 times for 1 query. So your solution has complexity O(m·k).

    I'm guessing you have some implementation issue in your octree, but that a nice idea! I tried implementing it in Java, and it's the only 3d range query solution that passed the time limit (577 ms).

    Here is some of the other implementation:

    577 ms Oct3Tree (https://codeforces.net/contest/1010/submission/40861402)

    TLE RangeDTree (https://codeforces.net/contest/1010/submission/40860248)

    TLE KDtree (https://codeforces.net/contest/1010/submission/40860860)

    I even tried using persistence Kd-Tree, but this didn't quite work either.

    I'm interested why the range-tree (which is in the same complexity as the octTree), didn't pass the tests, maybe I'm missing a bug somewhere...

    Anyway cool question, I really enjoyed it :)

    For any integer a and b with gcd(a,b)=D, there always exists integers x and y, such that ax + by = D. And here we can use gcd, as D is also bounded by K,in other words (ax + by)mod K = D mod K, so there always exists non-negative x and y.

    If we take gcd(a1,a2,...,an,K)=S, we will get the smallest last digit(other than 0) which we can be obtained using the denominations ( K is also included in the gcd because we need the last digit which is bounded by K).

    So multiples of S less than K will be the answer because there are the number of denominations are infinite.

        If you try to do extended euclidean algorithm by hand, you will see this works for negative coefficient.

        Simple case:

        ax + by = d, where d = gcd(a,b)

        In many euclidian algorithm you define gcd(a,b) recursively like: gcd(a,b) = gcd(b, a mod b) and base case gcd(a, 0) = a

        Well actually, we know already x and y values for

        ax + by = a (here x = 1, y = 0)

        and

        ax + by = b (here x = 0, y = 1)

        Now we can use these values to find (x,y) such that

        ax + by = (a mod b)

        How?

        Ok so now you can recursivley apply this logic until you find good coefficients x and y that make it so ax+by = gcd(a,b).

        Of course, try some examples and you will notice some of these coefficients are negative. (since a mod b is just a-kb, it's not surprising)

        Now you can extend this to more than 2 numbers because gcd(a,b,c) is just gcd(gcd(a,b),c) and so on.

          But... Why x_i < 0 does not affect the calculation to problem (Div. 2) — E, can you explain me.

          Tutorial: Here some xi<0, But Natasha can add for each par a sufficiently large number, multiple k, that xi became greater than zero, the balance from dividing the amount of tax on k from this will not change.

          what does it mean? add sufficiently large number, multiple k, that xi became greater than zero.

          I think that considering negative xi means that Natasha receives money from martians (she should only pay to visit Mars). Example 12x1 + 20x2 = gcd (12,20) = 4 where x1 = 2, x2 = -1. How is x2 made positive?

            Once you find one set of coefficient, actually you can find infinite amount (and you can adjust the coefficients to be positive one)

            for example:

            ax + by = c

            but also means

            a(x+b) + b(y-a) = c

            And you can "adjust" it.

    Comparing double value with integer gives you 1000000000.0000000 > 1000000000. So 1000000000.0000000 is considered wrong(as it exceeds 10^9) which in fact is right. Did the same mistake

    It is because, your first binary search.

    if(check(mid))
      	{
      		if(check(mid-1))
      			r=mid-1;
      		else
      			break;
      	}
    

    Let's say that l=10^9 and r=10^9 -> mid=10^9. when you called check(mid) function it returns true. It is obviously if you called check(mid-1), it will also return true and now your r will become 10^9 — 1; That's why when your first binary search is done, it will produce -1 (l>r)

    Using both mid+1 and mid-1 doesn't work in this problem because you are ignoring all the real values from (mid, mid+1) and (mid-1, mid) when you transition in your search. Eventually it means even when you convert it to doubles, you will not find an answer because the integer bounds were wrong.

        Yes but you still do some "cutting" in your integer solution, and the incorrect bounds can carry over to your floating-point search because doing +1 and -1. Maybe it would work with 1e9+1 or mid+1, because of the offset, but the integer binary search is unnecessary and fundamentally wrong. It would be better if you started with floating point in the first place and fixed the iterations.

    You want to write a program to "guess" a number chosen by the judge.

    You can print out a number y, to which the judge will return you some information about whether the actual number, x, is less than, greater than, or equal to y (your guessed number).

    But sometimes the judge will lie and tell you x is less than y when really its the other way around. But the judge lies in a specific pattern of length n.

    Your program has to determine this pattern by guessing in some strategy, and after knowing this sequence try to guess the number x.
