We would be happy to invite you to participate in 2023 ICPC HIAST Collegiate Programming Contest that was held on 17th July in Damascus, Syria.

The problems are authored and prepared by Zaher ,SaeedSabbagh, OmarAlzakout, Yaman_Alwaza, Abdulrahman27, Khaled_Mardini, Ahmad7_7, Ismail_Alrifai, yaser.harba, and me.

Thanks to Kaitokid and HeMoo for testing the contest.

And Special thanks to EleCursity for helping us to coordinate the contest onsite and his efforts to ensure that everything ran well.

We would love to hear your feedback on the problems in the comments section. Hope you enjoy solving the problems!

UPD: it seems that there were something wrong with time limit of problem A, We've updated the time limit and all accepted solutions were rejudged, We do really apology for that wrong but too many non accepted solution have passed tests which made the problem too silly compared to the intended solution, We advise to try to solve the problem with the intended solution since it has a nice idea.
