Invitation to CodeChef February Long Challenge 2020

Engima contest was rated for both div1 and div2 so it shouldn’t matter I think

A doubt regarding scholarship for ccdsap:
Long has a challenge problem with relative scoring which is separate for each division, then when the combined rank list will be made, do they normalize the score for everyone for the challenge problem ?

Afaik, normalization is not done. But again, I havent asked admin either. Try dropping them a mail perhaps

Is the scholarship coupon only for march 22nd exam ?
Or for exam even taken after 22nd march ?

@admin @vijju123

Thanks

AFAIK The delta is calculated from the current rating(1722 in your case) for both the contest.

Why don’t you read the rules at bottom and figure it out? .

PS: Not allowed.

@vijju123
Please solve my little doubt that 1st rank among those who applied for ccdsap scholarship in an university will get 100 % scholarship or Overall 1st rank no matter wheather the first rank holder have applied or not for the scholarship from that university?

vijju123 · February 13, 2020, 12:09pm

Will get admin to reply to you.

anon31329220 · February 14, 2020, 2:00pm

hetp111 · February 15, 2020, 11:25am

How ?

dormordo · February 15, 2020, 12:38pm

International Coding Marathon tomorrow

vijju123 · February 16, 2020, 7:34am

I do not think I can help much here. I think best to mail admin at help@codechef.com , but I doubt anything can be done.

I am not participating in LONG. This is just out of curiosity.
I see in challenge problem div1 also has a score of 100 and div2 also has a score of 100 which means people are scored relatively to the topper of their division.
Isn’t this unfair given that the college topper will get 100% scholarship?? A person in div1 might get less score in challenge problem as compared to someone in div2 for the same code
