Data Structures and Algorithms coding challenge #2
By Arpa, history, 5 years ago, In English

Hi!

I'm here to introduce a new series of contests on HackerEarth, Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) coding challenge! In this series, you will have to solve 3 problems in 1.5 hours.

The problems are classic and educational as against being creative and challenging. So, if you're learning new things, don't miss the DSA contests. These contests are similar to Codeforces Educational rounds.

We have hard problems and easy problems in this contest. After the contest, don't forget to upsolve! This will help you a lot.

The next DSA contest is on September 14, 4 AM UTC.

Authors are Devarshi (devarshi09) Khanna, Prakash (forgotter) Jha, and, Aditya (aditya123garg) Garg. I'm the tester of the round.

GL & HF!

    Thanks for informing. Can't say about previous contests, this time the team shall ensure no such confusion arises. Arpa, Please take a note of it.

    Also, during the contest, if still there is ambiguity left in statements, please comment it and setters would try to resolve them immediately.

    Best wishes, hope you enjoy the contest.
