The post says : Score distribution will be: Div2 = standard Div1 = 500-1000-1500-2000-2500 What is standard points division ? I used to think the points division mentioned for Division 1 above is the standard division where every consecutive problems is 500 points more worth than previous problem .

I didn't have time in contest to finish my E problem, so I'd like to ask if this algorithm is ok for solving this one:

I tried to find all triangles, that are not containing other points in it or at the edge. And from such triangles the answer is diameter of circumscribed circle. What do you think about this. I'm not sure about the limit, because finding such tringles in my implementation is O(n^4) where max(n) is 100...

Is it worth to try to finish it?

            No , take this test:

            4
            0 0
            0 1
            1 0
            1 1
            

            as you say "check that center of the circle is in the triangle solves this problem"

            so you sould answer this test by -1 but the correct answer is sqrt(2)/2

in problem C(div 2) my algorithm was so

for example n=8 k=3 array(1,6,2,9,3,7,5,4)

sort array: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9

I Divide array with sub arrays: {1,3,9},{2,6},4,5,7 so that in each sub array was x,k*x,k^2*x,k^3*x and so on.

and that ans will be sum of (each array length)/2+(each array length)%2+(num of arrays which consist only one element) ans=(3/2+3%2)+(2/2+2%2)+3=6

this solution got WA6 what is wrong?

      or you can just replace int with Integer and long with Long

      long[] a = new long[n]; TLE
      
      Long[] a = new Long[n]; AC
      

      This is because objects are sorted using merge sort instead of quick sort

Again, my solution 3159034 for C received TL because Arrays.sort seems to be slow for some special cases, I think my solution is efficient.I changed int[] for Integer[] and it got AC(3162097), I guess that the sorting method for Integer[] is not randomized( perhaps a merge sort), is this true?

          CF really needs top stop messing with java programmers. Can't use this, can't use that! :[

          As a programmer you think to yourself and say HashSet is faster than a TreeSet. But If you force all inserts into one bucket then obviously a HashSet is no better than an ArrayList. I just need to remember to code for the worst case instead of the average case on CF.

      std::sort uses an algorithm called introsort which has a worst case complexity of O(N log N). Basically it initially uses quick sort but switches to heap sort when the recursion depth gets too large.

    Actually, one possible solution is changing the language of the submission to java 7. That way it uses the tim-sort of java 7 which guarantee n log n worst case.

I used breadth first search for all vertices with priority Q in Question B Div2. if all black nodes cant be visited the answer is NO and if the no if direction changes >=2 answer is NO the direction changes if the current direction in which a node is accessed is perpendicular to the direction of neighbouring node...

Is this correct approach?

        Well, I just wanted to point out that the vertex with number 1 is the node with number 1, not the nodes that have value 1. I think this is what he's confused about the head of the tree... (I just represented it to be the root of the tree).

I have a question about problem div1 E. Why does the answer become so small, that is all answers are no more than 200000, and brute force can pass all the tests??? just because k — the number of the blocked cells is small? I think maybe we can construct an input data to make a larger answer and make brute force TLE.

In all, I think the test data of problem div1 E may be too weak and let the solutions that are not optimized enough pass.

Would the problem setter of this problem please give me a reply??

    Yes, even 100000 x 99999 empty board will produce a huge answer.

    You're right. I didn't manage to generate the tests for this problem more carefully because I didn't have much time before the contest to prepare the tests and obviously I missed lots good of tests. Also random tests with the dimensions I used (mostly both n and m were powers of 10) seemed to have very small answers.

    Now I've updated the tests and I've added a lot more tests with huge answer. So the brute-force solutions won't pass anymore.

    I'm sorry about this. Hope I do better in my next contests. :)

      And another little problem is that previous submissions are still there without being rejudged. Would you please rejudge them?

        Gerald told me that it's impossible to do, because It would be unfair to those who've got AC. :)

          But now the shortest solution is by me and it's brute force... //also just because this can I find the problem about the tests...

              Thanks for rejudging my wrong submissions! In fact only some of my submissions are correct!Would you please rejudge all of my submissions in order not to mislead others. And I think majority of the solutions of the guys that previously tried to solve this problem and then got AC are correct, would you please also rejudge them in order to show the correct real execution time?

                I think it really doesn't matter that much. I rejudged your solutions, but it's not good to rejudge others'. I think everything's ok right now. :)

"A subtree of a tree T is a tree with both vertices and edges as subsets of vertices and edges of T." This is not true :-/ Also, when I asked for clarifications about this I got "No comment".

    Why it's not true? In problem statement you was given a definition of subtree, which you needed to use. Not any other definition from wiki or another place.

      Ok, maybe it's true, but definitely not complete. We cannot pick ANY subset of vertices and edges. They do not specify that all vertices must have a path to vertex 1.

        Not ANY subsets, you skipped the first part of the definition..."A subtree of a tree T [IS A TREE] with both vertices and edges as subsets of vertices and edges of T"

Here's an idea for Div 2 E: construct a Delaunay triangulation of all the given points (doable in N log(N)). Delaunay triangulation satisfies the property that a circumcircle of points that are connected by the edges of triangulation doesn't contain any other points (except possibly some points lie directly on the circumcircle and not inside of it).

Then for every triangle in the triangulation, check that the circumcenter of the triangle lies strictly inside of the triangle. The triangle with the largest radius of the the circumcircle is the answer. You will also need to handle the "special case" when the circumcenter lies on on of the sides of triangle ABC (let it lie on side AB). A "hole" will be created only if there is a fourth point D on the circumcircle of ABC which is connected by the edges of the triangulation to A and B.

Delaunay triangulation is constructable in N log(N) time, but not sure if it is codable in the contest time.

Anyone knows why Scala is so slow on Codeforces. I tested my program for Div2-B locally and it's as fast as Java, but it failed to pass on OJ.

    this problem is solvable with a simple dynamic idea.

    run dfs on graph and find for every vertex value of a_i and b_i, in order minimum number of increase and decrease to make value of all vertex in subtree of vertex i equal zero.

    for leafs we can calculate it simple, and for non-leafs vertex (i) we can calculate it by this way : for every j that j is children of i

    a_i = max(a_i, a_j); b_i = max(b_i, b_j);

    and at last we should calculate number of operations that we need to make value of vertex i equal zero.

    w = value[i] — b_i + a_i;

    if(w<0)

    a_i -= w

    else

    b_i += w

    proof of this algorithm is very simple . sorry for my poor English, I hope this help you.

    So, my solution is as follows:

    • root the tree in vertex 1; for each vertex, determine its children

    • recursive approach: for each vertex, calculate the minimum number of adding and of subtracting operations (each separately) which must be applied on it so that it and all its descendants would get a value of 0

    • first, calculate the numbers for all its children; then, the minimum for each type of operations is clearly at least the maximum of minimums of this type of operation for all the children (due to the rooting, if an operation is applied on a vertex, it's applied on all its ancestors); by applying these operations, its value v_i changes and you need a minimum of additional v_i subtractions (if v_i is positive) or -v_i additions (if it's negative) to get it to 0

    There exists a suitable construction of these operations such that the resulting tree truly is a zero tree — you may think about it.

    In any case, the answer is minimum number of additions+subtractions for vertex 0 (by definition). The overall complexity is then optimal O(N).

problem D in div1: it said the brother erased some intergers and change the order of some of its columns. But it also said when "If there exists no possible reordering of the columns print -1" and I think this is a contradiction because we can awalys change it back to the original order against the brother's order. I also the answer of sample 3 is "-1" :(

Is the word "editorial" correct? shouldn't it be the "tutorial"?
