        for(int i = 1 ; i <= n ; i ++)

            if(!ans1 && !ans2) 
                ans1 += pow_mod(p , k[i] , MOD), 
                ans2 += pow_mod(p , k[i] , mod);
            else
                ans1 = (ans1 - pow_mod(p , k[i] , MOD) + MOD) % MOD,
                ans2 = (ans2 - pow_mod(p , k[i] , mod) + mod) % mod;
        }
        cout << ans1 << '\n';
    }
    return 0;
}

Can somebody explain why this solution works for last (DIV2E).It really feels easy to code but what is logic behind another mod ?? https://codeforces.net/contest/1361/problem/B

int  main()
{
     int t;
     cin>>t;
    int a,b,c;
    cin>>a>>b>>c;
    double tmp=a+b;
    tmp=tmp/2;
    cout<<tmp<<"!";
}

input is : 1 232444 123233 232434 why it is giving wrong answer:177838; why it is rounding off the value .

I am new to codeforces .I always see scoring distribution mentioned of codeforces div-2 and div-1 round.But i want to know what is scoring distribution of div-3 rounds and educational rounds.I want to know if all problems are comprised of same marks?? and late correct submission reduces marks of problems in these div-3 and educational rounds??
