Finally expert!
By ariel.nowik, history, 6 years ago, In English

Hi all! I want to write 'cause I am totally happy about my last ranking promotion; to expert!

It have been now 3 years of hard work, and, let me say, It is worth! Who can say learning is boring?

I still remember the old days, in IOI2015, That times I was weak and still very shy. I was a mosquito, and IOI the bazooka.

Moreover, one fact I would like to share: I am currently not aiming to be a computer scientist, I am currently studying to be a electronics engineer, so this is not my principal field. However computer science is widely used here and I find, to learn it very complementary, it helps me with my field, although it is not strictly central, It is something not very well taught in my courses but that is it useful.

I hope you all the best wishes! Ask me problems if you need help :) I love trying to explain hard things.

Ask me problems if you need help

It's very kind of you to offer help to others. But be careful what you wish for in CF. You may start getting PM like these: http://codeforces.net/blog/entry/47516

    You need to understand that easy and hard are relative things. That IS easy.

    Why don't you become blue if it is so easy, then? There is no logic in claiming something you have not achieved is easy, simply because you could not know.

If you won the National Team Selection Contest of your country(to be a participant of IOI) while you were a Specialist , it's a very big achievement.Congrats again!

          I think having multiple accounts is not allowed on codeforces, see this
