There will be a Grand Prix of Southeastern Europe based on these problems this Sunday, November 28, 08:00 UTC. Here is the link to the OpenCup.
This year, the sets of SEERC and OpenCup are a bit different: OpenCup won't include a few easier problems from SEERC and will additionally include several harder problems. In addition, problems are shuffled, so don't follow the standings of the official contest too much.
The authors of the OpenCup set are eudanip, Um_nik, bicsi, RomaWhite, Andrei1998, and me, antontrygubO_o. After the contest, the editorials to both versions of the contest will be published, and both versions of the contest will be uploaded to the gym.
We hope that you will enjoy the contest!

This region became really strong in the last few years (just look at the last WF). What's the chance of them inviting >= 4 teams?
I guess quotes for a regions will be decided after WF considering performance of all the teams from the region.
I guess this is the blog for discussing the opencup round.
Is C intended to require fast modular multiplication? We TLEd without and passed with Montgomery multiplication.
We didn't use any fancy multiplication and passed in 1.6 s.
Is it possible that you have a slower solution in general? I remember I had to be just slightly clever about the brute force.
We didn't use any fancy multiplication and passed in 0.6 s.
This is pretty different from what we did, but I do see why it's fast.
We looped $$$r$$$ from $$$1$$$ to $$$18$$$, and maintained a dp array, where $$$DP[v][s]$$$ is the number of ways to have sum $$$s$$$ and product $$$v$$$ with $$$r$$$ numbers greater than $$$1$$$.
Since not all $$$n^2$$$ states fit in ML we just had $$$DP[v]$$$ be a vector of pairs $$$\{s, c\}$$$ where sum of $$$c_i$$$ over pairs $$$\{s, c_i\}$$$ in $$$DP[v]$$$ is $$$DP[v][s]$$$.
Changing to Montgomery multiplication gave a speedup from around 2.3s to 1.33s so the overhead from messing around with vectors of pairs shouldn't be that big.
We also TLEd initially, but passed in about 1.8 seconds by not multiplying by factorials and inverse factorials when they're factorials/inverse factorials of 1.
Can somebody explain in a bit more detail why the DP for specific color in H is O(n*cnt_of_this_color) ?

Thanks
I: After reducing to the cycle packing problem (as in the editorial), I guessed that the maximum number of cycles we can take is equal to the minimum size of a feedback arc set (so I just tried $$$k!$$$ permutations). This is clearly an upper bound, and I think this is not exactly correct in general. I wonder if this works for $$$k \le 5$$$.
The supporter of this guess is the answers to https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1608237/maximum-number-of-edge-disjoint-cycles-vs-minimum-number-of-edges-in-a-cut
I find it quite amusing that Counting Phenomenal Arrays got only 8 AC during SEERC and the first one was at 2:41 xD
Hello, when will the tests of SEERC be published? The official site http://acm.ro hasn't been updated yet. Thanks!
