Programming Club, IIT Mandi and ACM Student Chapter, IIT Mandi are organizing Dementia 2020, our annual programming contest on 13th August, 8:30 pm — 11 pm IST.
The contest features 5 problems of varying difficulty and contest duration is 2 hours and 30 minutes. The contest is rated for Division 2 on CodeChef (<1800 rating). However, Division 1 can participate out of competition (4* and 5* users especially, should find some problems interesting).
We would like to thank jtnydv25 for being the round coordinator on behalf of CodeChef and suggesting a major improvement to one of the problems and smit_mandavia(l_returns) for testing the problems and catching issues that slipped our internal testing, Taran_1407 for an initial review of the problem ideas, as well as the rest of the CodeChef team for managing other logistics of the contest.
I guess your present rating will be counted and ratings due to both the contests will be updated according to your present rating.
Good time for me to be in division 2
Nope, only those with ratings less than 1800 at the time of contest beginning are eligible for rated.
It is also good for once perspective as if even contest doesn’t goes well you don’t have to worry about the ratings.
I used trie in Min-Max string but was not able to get the smallest or largest string in logrithmic or constant time.
What trick/method is to be used to do this.
