Questions regarding INOI 2021

In all honesty, you have very low chances of qualification if you don’t know how the basic system of coding-compiling-submitting works. Do try some questions from the INOIPRAC contest to acquaint yourself with the judging platform.

Done a few problems from INOIPRAC, Just didn’t knew how the system works as I’m still a novice. My chances are low already :slight_smile:

Also thanks for making me hyperventilate.

@infinitepro One more question. Do we need to set the build commands on our own if we use Geany or we can expect that to be set up already? (Though I believe it should be the latter case.)

You’ll have to set it up yourself. Typically, the command g++ -std=c++14 file.cpp && ./a.out suffices to compile and run the program. Alternatively, you could use CodeChef Online IDE (provided it’s allowed), which does the compilation and execution for you.

@admin Is codechef IDE provided for INOI?

Alternatively, you can also use CLion/CodeBlocks for compiling.

I used to use CodeBlocks before, but later switched to Geany. Never used CLion, isn’t it paid? I had heard about some instability issues in CodeBlocks on Ubuntu so made that transition. I think I’ll have to remember that one line compile statement :slight_smile:

CLion is paid, but it has 30 day free trial.
Also, you can make use of student pack which allows students to use CLion for free.
I have been using CLion from the past one month.
I have not faced any issues + It’s also great for debugging :slight_smile:

DO NOT use an IDE for competitive programming. They don’t run great on the provided PC’s and slow you down tremendously. Also, you’ll become overdependent on the code completion, which is detrimental to speed solving. Learn to use gdb and terminal. You can thank me later.

Same I will also not qualify.
Wanna make an INOI group for this year in which we will update what we did everyday for practicing
for next years INOI + IOITC?

we are allowed our own laptops? really? cause I read somewhere we would be given ubuntu and a limited number of IDEs and text editors.

Literally we have to take our own laptops? why didn’t centre provide us laptops. Should we also have to take our own laptops at IOI or we are provided with them at centre.

Laptops are provided there. I don’t know what this nonsense of taking personal devices to the exam centre is. I’ll be mailing IARCS about this.

Thanks for the oi checklist link regardless.

Really dude is there no limit to submit problem ( mean you can submit multiple time , single problem)
