what is the intuition behind this question spoj:

i am trying but able to find the correct solution for it please some one help. Btw the question is ::

A knight is located at the (black) origin of an infinite chessboard. Let f(n) define the number of black squares the knight can reach after making exactly n moves. Given n (0 <= n <= 108), output f(n).

i recently read about the "meet in the middle" technique for solving sub array sum problems in O((2^(n/2)).log(2^(n/2)) so i tried to solve this codeforces problem using this technique but not able to understand how to select the value of K so that sum till ak become sum<=k .. problem link : E. Maximum Subsequence::

my wrong solution link how to correct it ?

i have stuck on this spoj problem in which i have to calculate dominance of points e.g. a point (x1, y1) is said to be dominating another point (x2, y2) if x1>=x2 and y1>=y2 .

https://www.spoj.com/problems/DCEPC705/

my question is that how can i calculate this using binary index tree? this question was queued under the Binary index tree on a portal.

link of the problem is : https://www.spoj.com/problems/TPGA/

i am solving spoj problem in which i have to find the rank of the permutations when the integers lexicographically arranged means eg.

1 2 3

1 3 2

2 1 3

2 3 1

3 1 2

3 2 1

rank of 132 is 2. now i want to know how can i solve this using binary index tree ,i found this problem on coding portal in which this problem was queued under the Binary Index Problems someone help. give idea at least.

i am trying to solve this spoj question Your text to link here... after looking at the problem someone can easily understand it's direct 2D-Binary Index Tree it's been more than 2 days but somehow i am missing something pls help me!! my soluiont is

ideone link is
