PS: For October Long Challenge, we won’t be having any tie-break Challenge problem.

So, instead of giving usual cash prizes to the top ranked users, we will give laddus, which help in fair distribution of reward.

  • For Indian ranklist, we’ll distribute 5000 laddus amongst all the top-scorers.
  • For the Global ranklist, we’ll distribute 13000 laddus amongst all the top-scorers.

The top 20 performers in the Indian category and top 10 performers in the Global category will get CodeChef laddus, with which the winners can claim cool CodeChef goodies. First to solve each problem except challenge - 100 laddus. Know more here: https://goodies.codechef.com/.
