Clique is back!! And this time, it is going to be bigger, better, and much more exciting!! Get ready to experience the thrill once again as we bring for you 3 hours of non-stop coding, and fun!

Web Enthusiasts' Club, National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal has brought for you the third edition of the online programming contest series — Clique.

Date: 26th August 2016, Friday

Time: 9.00pm to 12.00am IST (Check your timezone here)

Register At: http://www.hackerrank.com/clique3

Problem Setters: Single_Ready_To_Mingle, nitksubbu, InnocentFool, ajinkya1p3, vadi, asteri

RULES:

1.This is an individual contest.

2.There are SIX problems of varying difficulty levels.

3.You will receive one point for solving a problem (passing all test cases — no partial credit), regardless of the level of difficulty of that problem.

4.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 prepare an interesting problemset, and the difficulty level is roughly the same as a Codeforces Div2 round.

Here's a link to our previous contests :

Feedback? I've always thought that winning a contest tastes better xD.

And now more seriously; problems B — D were really nice, problems E — F were both easy and implementation-tooHeavy. And I don't know why problem A had super complicated statement for the trivial task...

The whole Clique was fine, but it could have been way better if the problemset was more balanced.
