Hii Codeforces!

We are pleased to invite you all to the International Coding Marathon, under the banner of Technex '22, the annual techno-management fest of the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi.

ICM is the flagship CP event of Byte the Bits, the set of programming events organized under Technex. It is scheduled for 8PM IST (in about 6 hours from now) on the CodeChef platform.

Here is the contest link: CodeChef Starters 30
