    I agree this month's problemset was not very interesting, we had more interesting problemsets in the past, the issue is that we didn't have any proposal for this month's lunchtime so I had to set those problems in short time and I couldn't find problems more interesting than those problems within available time.

    so I would like to invite anyone who has interesting problems in mind to propose a problemset for short contest (cookoff — lunchtime) to us via email [email protected].

    for every sub-string keep track of frequency of its characters , and no of distinct character and and max frequency of character. For string to interesting no of distinct chars should be greater than k and (max freq)*(no distinct chars) should be equal to length of sub-string.

Problem TSUM2 subtask 2, I got WA and RE. Is there a longer path than 200 nodes?

    I got WAs both in first and second subtask. Possible I have bug, but also it is possible they have longer path (I have only 2 AC in the first subtask too, but I believe binary tree can have any depth).

    I am actually the setter of problem TSUM2

    Sorry, It is totally my fault.

    I made several mistakes when generating the tests.

    This is the first time I've set a problem. I feel so guilty that my carelessness causes such terrible issue. Apologize to everyone who got stuck on this problem.

For the last one.Is the idea doing dsu on trees + 2 dynamic convex hull tricks and maintaining some deficits while updating convex hulls(something like Venice technique).

UPD: My idea works though editorial describes centroid decomposition
