Dude i totally bear with you,but in the end you have to understand that the problem setter’s are random people with NULL knowledge of programming competitions.They give us exact problem implementation and expect us to write codes from scratch when little delay can cost you your seat .The fact that none of the questions in regionals or finals are direct implementations calls for a plagiarism check.I really want to know who the problem setter was and congratulate him on screwing the aspirations of some good deserving candidates.We also have to cancel our tickets now.

What I believed till now was that ACM ICPC is all about knowing and applying algorithms (as they allowed us to have our standard libraries with us during the onsite also) but they have proved me wrong by their gesture of removing the deserving teams. It only conveys us that they only care about rote learning of some 1000 lines standard code and not how they are applied .

@tusharmakkar08, just for the sake that you mentioned that standard libraries/algorithms that are implemented or adapted from some third party source is officially allowed by ACM-ICPC, but my teammates who went to ACM-ICPC Kanpur Onsite Round 2012 had to face a different scenario. Access to C++ STL and carrying standard algorithm implementations ‘were not’ allowed in the onsite round. All teams were taken aback and the contest director reasoned that carrying 25-page implementation is wastage of pages and thus the environment.

@disguise, I am amazed at your thought that they used some automated plagiarism detector on those submissions.

@tusharmakkar08, please post the outcome of discussion with the ACM ASIA Contest director Dr C J Hwang, particularly, the usage of third party code that is wriiten and published/distributed before the start of the round.

@aj5774 : I don’t know about ACM-ICPC Kanpur but people were allowed to carry standard algorithm implementation in ACM-ICPC Amritapuri . This year cookbook also mentions the same .

An additional list has been published…and you are selected I guess :slight_smile:
