THIS TESTCASE WILL FAIL HALF OF THE SOLUTION FOR PROBLEM SUMOR:
1
3
20 12 19
20|12|19 = 31
12|19 = 31
19 = 19
31+31+19 = 81
THE correct answer is 81.
testcase are weak for this question. @admin @vijju123. there are lot many solution which gives 79 and still passes the testcases.

You should explain why it is 81. It should be 79 according to me.

We submitted the solution to the third problem approx 6 minutes before the end of the contest.
And the status is still “Submission queued”. @admin Please look into the matter.

@aman_robotics after the contest I asked my friend who solved it during contest. Their answer was failing the testcase I was struggling.

You are talking of PENS, right?
Well I used a greedy approach to assign the largest segment till it could be served by a single element. Now, how do we know if there is a single element that can serve a particular set. I used dp with bitmasks where each bit represents the characters that could be written. Now, use dp where each dp[i] is -1 if that set can’t be served by a single element (i is the bitmask). Else, it is the index of the element that can serve the subset.
I think code will be able to explain it better: //// Created by Naman Bhalla on 18/10/19.//#include <bits/stdc++.h>usi - Pastebin.com
