Every rating change takes place with respect to the initial ratings so for all these contests would the base rating be our current rating ?

Nice :ok_hand:t2: The Problems were interesting, btw how did you guys do 4th One? :thinking:

13

ig the constraints were wrong

14

Which question you are taking about?

15

I applied binary search on the answer. Here is my code.
Btw, how did you solved the 3rd one? What was your thought process in that?

16

the jee one

17

I could not solve the 4th one. how did you solve it? any idea?

18

Diffrentiate it by hand first. Set min to and max to pi/2. Do binary search, if slope is negative, go ahead, if slope is positive go behind. Then compute the value for f(x)

How to solve Third question.?
Are These Equal

20

For “Are these equal”

I checked two things

  1. The sum of elements must be a multiple of k

  2. The minimum no of operations would be equal to maximum element in array and The maximum operations would be simply sum//k
    Then i just checked if minimum is less than or equal to maximum value.

I just checked these two condition for Output

Code 
        int n,k;
        cin>>n>>k;
        int a[n];
        for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
            cin >> a[i];
        sort(a,a+n);
        int sum = accumulate(a,a+n,0);
        int maxi=a[n-1];
        int temp=sum/k;
        if(sum%k==0 && temp>=maxi)
            cout << "YES" << endl;
        else
            cout << "NO" << endl;
