Should be easy as long as you know the basics of your chosen programming language. Can be computed with an if/else statement, the ternary operator (ans = x == 1 ? 0 : 1), or the xor operator (ans = x ^ 1)

Answer is one of: $$$a \cdot c, a \cdot d, b \cdot c, b \cdot d$$$; find the maximum of these and print it.

Proof by exchange argument: No matter what you pick $$$x$$$ to be, you can improve the product by either maximizing or minimizing $$$y$$$, based on the sign of $$$x$$$. Same argument applies when $$$x$$$ and $$$y$$$ are swapped.

There are $$$10$$$ possible digits among $$$n$$$ positions, thus the total number of sequences that satisfy the first constraint is $$$10^n$$$.

Now we want to subtract sequences that violate the second or third constraints. We can construct $$$9^n$$$ sequences without any 0s (violating the second constraint), same with sequences without any 9s (violating the third constraint).

However if we subtract $$$2 \cdot 9^n$$$, note that we have subtracted the sequences that violate both the second and third constraints twice. There are $$$8^n$$$ such sequences (as they lack both 0s and 9s), so we add them back to get the correct count. This pattern of overcounting, adding, overcounting, subtracting, repeat until a final accurate count is known as the inclusion-exclusion principle.

Final answer is thus $$$10^n - 2 \cdot 9^n + 8^n$$$. This can be calculated in $$$O(n)$$$ via repeated multiplication, or $$$O(\log n)$$$ via fast exponentiation. If you don't know how to work with large numbers under a modulus, see my tutorial on that subject.

Can be done with basic dynamic programming. Let $$$dp_i$$$ represent the number of sequences whose sum is $$$i$$$. $$$dp_0 = 1$$$, the empty sequence. Then $$$\displaystyle dp_i = \sum_{j=0}^{i-3} dp_j$$$, i.e. the sum of $$$dp_j$$$ for all integers $$$j$$$ between $$$0$$$ and $$$i-3$$$ inclusive, representing the addition of a number $$$\ge 3$$$ to each of the previous sequences. The final answer, naturally, is $$$dp_s$$$.

This can be easily calculated in $$$O(s^2)$$$, which is good enough to pass, however it can be improved to $$$O(s)$$$ by accumulating the prefix sum.

An $$$O(\log s)$$$ solution is possible via matrix exponentiation.

We can take the following approach — for each $$$i$$$ from $$$2$$$ to $$$n$$$, try to match $$$(x_i, y_i)$$$ with the "best" previous point $$$(x_j, y_j), 1 \le j < i$$$, then update the answer.

Testing all previous points is too slow ($$$O(n^2)$$$). However, it is sufficient only to keep up to $$$4$$$ previous points to test against. $$$2$$$ of those points are the maximal and minimal of the "score" $$$x_i + y_i$$$, while the other $$$2$$$ maximize and minimize $$$x_i - y_i$$$

Why? Note that taking any point as the center, the set of points with Manhattan distance some arbitrary constant $$$d$$$, forms a "diamond" shape, i.e. a square rotated 45 degrees. Thus the furthest point must lie on at least one of the four sides of this square when $$$d$$$ is maximized. As the sides are on lines with equations of $$$x+y = C$$$ or $$$x-y = C$$$, the maximums and minimums of these values are sufficient to find the furthest point in each of the 4 possible directions.

Thus we have a solution in $$$O(n)$$$.

Let $$$C$$$ be the array that holds the answer sequence. At first, we can greedily put any value of $$$B$$$ that doesn't match $$$A_i$$$ for each position from left to right.

If this strategy fails, it means that we are in a position where $$$A_i = z$$$ all remaining members of $$$B$$$ are $$$z$$$. If we put all the $$$z$$$ values into $$$C$$$, the situation looks like this:
