RULES:

  1. This is an individual contest.
  2. You will receive 1 point for solving a problem (passing all test cases — no partial credit), regardless of the level of difficulty of that problem.
  3. The total time is the sum of the time consumed for each problem solved. The time consumed for a solved problem is the time elapsed from the beginning of the contest to the submittal of the first accepted run plus 20 penalty minutes for every previously rejected run for that problem. There is no time consumed for a problem that is not solved.

We have tried our best to create an interesting problemset, and we hope that everyone finds something interesting in the tasks.

We hope you’ll have an amazing time! Happy Coding!! :slight_smile:

I seemed very much excited for the contest untill after viewing the contest date, timing.
It clashes with Codeforces Global Round 5 :slightly_frowning_face: . Also, it seems quite unlikely that the timings and date would be changed now.
