Hello CodeForces Community!

I’d like to invite you to the CodeChef August Cook-Off. As usual, the CookOff will be on the second last Sunday of the month.

Joining me on the problem setting panel are:

• Problem Setter: Morphy (Alei Reyes)
• Problem Tester: kingofnumbers ( Hasan Jaddouh)
• Editorialist: PraveenDhinwa (Praveen Dhinwa)
• Russian Translator: CherryTree (Sergey Kulik)
• Mandarin Translator: huzecong (Hu Zecong)
• Vietnamese Translator: VNOI Team
• Contest Admin and Language Verifier: PraveenDhinwa (Praveen Dhinwa)

Especial thanks go to kpw29 for his appreciation of the problem-set before I send it to CodeChef, he have a good taste in programming contests so I'm glad he found the problems interesting.

The contest theme is based on Lewis Carroll's book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Problems are not sorted by difficulty, so I highly recommend to read all of them. This is my second time as problem setter, you can see my previous round at CF328.

I hope you will enjoy solving the problem set. Please give your feedbacks in the comments below after the contest. You can find the rest of the details about the contest below.

Time: 21st August 2016 (2130 hrs) to 22nd 2016 (0000 hrs). (Indian Standard Time — +5:30 GMT) — Check your timezone.
