For problem C, why does it not work if I do not use a visited set? It should be sufficient to mark it as empty "." right? Is there an edge case i am missing here?

    Maybe you referenced $$$grid[n][m]$$$ where $$$n\ge N$$$ or $$$m\ge M$$$?

    You have to use a priority queue. Imagine when you are at time t, and there are two segments which contain t. At this point, it doesn't matter which of these segments begins first. All it matter is which of these segments finish first.

      Not exactly the same problem... if i recall the one in cph disallows choosing another task whilst performing the first one, so the proof for this problem is different from in CPH. However its true the greedy is the same.

      Seems like the proof is a bit difficult... wonder why they omit it in the editorial :|

    $$$dp_{i, j} = \min$$$ number of type-2 sensors to cover first $$$i$$$ ranges if we also use $$$j$$$ type-1 sensors

      tbh I misread constraints for $$$k$$$, assumed that $$$k \le 10^9$$$ :(

I think problem F is very inspiring, even though I didn't come up with that definition as the editorial mentions.

However, this reminds me of a problem that I have met before, which involves a similar idea https://codeforces.com/contest/745/problem/E.

When I first met some new ideas, I could keep that in mind, maybe for several days, and this time, it shows again that, I will forget it sooner or later. I think I should practice harder and more.

Could someone expain me this sentence?

You can switch from company car to train, but not vice versa. You can do so without spending time, but only in a city.

Does that mean once I get on the train,I can't get on the car anymore,then I must get to the n city by train?

Can anyone please explain D to me in detail? Why are we not taking the start time first and all that? I am really struggling with this problem and I also didn't find the editorial of much help. Any explanation would be really highly appreciated.

can anyone tell me why the 3rd test case of problem B is 67 and not 66? My manual calculation gives 66. But I can't understand how it is 67.
