CodeChef October Mega-Cook Off 2018 starts in ~48h, (sunday 21 11:00 PET).
You will have 2.5h to solve 5 puzzles. My last contest was April Cook-off, ussually I only set one contest per year, so this year I broke the curse!
The character of the contest is Chef Ada, she is the most intuitive girl I have ever met. Sometimes she can solve a problem before I finish telling the statement!
Hope you enjoy the problems. See you in the ranklist!
Upd. This time there will be also statements in spanish. Spanish is a complex language, let's hope I didn't miss any accent mark:)
Contest log:
11:08 many WAs in PUMPWAT. MaddyThakker takes the lead in div2.
11:13 MegaBidoof ACed PUMPWAT, even tester had a couple of WAs in this problem
11:24 kingofnumbers frightened me, numbers of equal height in the tests of PUMPWAT? false alarm, only the sample had a repeated element. Actually in the original version there was hills with equal height, but I decided to made the problem easier, and forgot to fix sample input.
11:30 I just noticed zemen is in div2! with two div1 problems solved, he could be first in div1 in this moment.
11:49 user:AlexDmitriev solved PWRTREE, he is still first
12:00 zemen finally solved PWRTREE in div2
12:31 KrK and uwi solving only two problems in a cc contest after 90 minutes? that is not often seen
12:45 riadwaw solved ADASHOP, IMHO it took him too much time, there are no submissions for ADAFARM yet.
12:56 The blue coder (3 stars) zemen :) got perfect score in div2, wondering if he could get perfect score in div1.
13:22 hatter from belarus solved ADASHOP skipping PWRTREE, that was an wise decision, I think PWRTREE is harder. Now he is 4th in div2.
13:27 ADAFARM has only one submission, and unfortunately it is RE (sorry Golovanov399)
13:35 Congrats to the winners!
Div 1.
