UPD 3: I'm sorry, but to prevent the leak of onsite results, we will postpone the start of system testing a bit. As soon as the closing ceremony finish at Forethought office, we will immediately start the system testing of the rounds. Until this time, the rounds will be hidden. But don't panic, this will only be temporary and we will return everything soon.

UPD 4: The results will be in around 90 minutes after the end of the competition.

I propose that round authors stop putting the interactive problem guide in any round announcement. Like 95% of the time all this does is tell the participants there are interactive problems. Interactive problems have been around for 3 years now; I think people know a thing or two about them. Nobody would say "This contest might have a DP problem, so familiarize yourself with arrays", so why should we do the same for interactive problems?

    Not the best analogy though: "this is DP problem" would typically be a hint (and it is never written in problem statement), while "this is an interactive problem" is something that is written in problem statement and isn't secret information.

      You're right, my analogy was not good. I think a better one would be announcing that "This contest might have GCD in the problem statement". It's a fairly common occurrence, and it does occur in problem statement, but you still wouldn't put this in a round announcement.

How to solve B?

    I took greedy approach, for a particular index (i,j) assigned a[i][j]=min(a[i][j],b[i][j]) and b[i][j]=max(a[i][j],b[i][j]). Then checked whether the new matrix a and b are increasing.

        Not really a proof, but just an intuition:

        Consider min_1, max_1, min_2, max_2, where min_1 < max_1, min_2 < max_2, min_1, max_1 are in the same cell and min_2, max_2 are in the same cell and min/max_2 goes after min/max_1. If min_2 <= min_1, then surely min_2 <= max_1 as well. Therefore, the best you can do is to put min_1 and min_2 in the same matrix.

        Personally, I came up with this after realizing that since we don't care about minimizing the number of swaps and such, it is best to treat two matrices as not two separate matrices, but a matrix of pairs which needs to be broken down. I.e. conceptually, you create the answer matrices "from scratch", ignoring which matrix they came from originally. And so, if you reformulate the problem is "what's a neat way to construct needed matrices from the available values?", the answer comes naturally after trying a few ways.

        solution, the solution is based on checking possible moves between question i and i+1: 3moves = {i+1,i}{i,i+1}{i,i}, 2moves = {i+1,i}{i,i+1} 1move = {i+1,i} or {i,i+1} if first occurence of i is greater than last occurence of i+1 and vice-versa.

      In fact, you only need to check the rotations that can be written as k=n/p for p = {any primes that divide n, including n itself}. If a smaller rotation exists, then it will be found by this method. For example, if k= n/2 is a valid solution, then k=n/4 will be as well since if you do 2 steps of k you will get to n/2.

    You can observe that the k used to rotate the segments must be a divisor of N. This means that there are at most $$$cbrt(N)$$$ candidates for k, therefore we can simulate the process. We can see if some state is equivalent with the initial one in O(N), but I think that O(N*log(N)) is also good

    We can represent the circle as a string (the "characters" are vectors of distances to neighbors) and then use Z function to find the period of the "string". The answer is yes if and only if the string is periodic (at least, my solution relies on that :D).

        Base of induction: if you have > n/2 zeros you lose. Otherwise if you have 1..n/2 zeros you win.

        Induction step: suppose for every k=0..m-1. If smallest is > n/2 you win, otherwise you lose.

        Suppose m is smallest value. If there're $$$> n/2$$$ of m, you will have to reduce at least one of them but no more than n/2, Your opponent will be in winning state for $$$min_v < m$$$. So $$$> n/2$$$ is losing state. If you have $$$1 <= cnt <= n/2$$$ values you can select $$$ n/2 $$$ bigger values and send opponent to losing state.

        if more than half of the piles is zero. you lose. if there is at least one of the pile is zero (but less than n/2), in one move you can make half of the piles zero and you win.

        if there is none of the piles is zero but there are more than half of the piles is one, in one move you will get at least 1 of the pile is zero, therefore you lose

        I just barely ran out of time before the contest ended, but I am pretty sure you need to use Sprague-Grundy Theory. If you have a piles with 1 stone and b piles with multiple stones, then nimber[a,b] (dp[a,b] if you prefer) = mex(childrenNimbers(a,b)) where the childrenNimbers are all all the nimbers of the states reachable from (a,b)

How to solve div1 B? My idea was to consider segments of same length and constructing the difference array of their first end point. Now to find valid k, i.e, a cyclic shift coinciding with this one, I used prefix function. And in the end, took intersection of all k's. But what bugged me is the fact that a segment have two lengths. How to handle that? or how to solve it alternatively?

            What I thought was to take the closer gaps for every segment (which will be less than $$$\frac{n}{2}$$$ and that makes more sense). But it depends totally on your implementation, I guess.

              Nah! That solution is wrong, and you can always construct hacks for it depending on implementation. The reason being that suppose you have segments of length l ( < n/2), then there might be a case that these segments aren't cyclic for any k. But a partition of it into two sets is possible, such that for some k, both sets are cyclic.

    You have N points on the circle. For any rotation to be a correct rotation, it's increment has to be a divisor of N. As N <= 1e5, max divisors of N is 128.

    Now, store your initial graph as an array of edges, and for each divisor of N between 1 and N-1, make a new graph by adding the increment (and handling the modulo of points between 1 and N) to the points in the old graph, and check if your new graph is the same as the old one.

    Complexity = O((Number of divisors of N)*M*C), where C is a constant like logN, depending on how you store your graph.

    I used the prefix function as well. However, I first created an array d, where d[i] is the sorted list of clock-wise segments lengths of which i is an end point. For example, if n = 7 and node 1 is connected to nodes 2, 4, and 6, d[1] would be {1, 3, 5}. I then created an additional array d2, which was two instances of d concatenated together. The Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm was used to determine if there were more than two occurrences of d in d2.

    lets iterate over all starting positions(from one to n) call  it pos
    
    if a pos is not in the x list
         answer += 3 if pos >1 and pos < n # e.g. (2,1)(2,2)(2,3)
         answer += 2 else  e.g(1,1)(1,2)
    
    if it is in the list
        if(last[pos-1] < first[pos]) 
        ++answer
        if(last[pos+1] < first<[pos])
        ++answer
    

    i know i am not very clear but could explain this much now

I'm sorry, but to prevent the leak of onsite results, we will postpone the start of system testing a bit. As soon as the closing ceremony finish at Forethought office, we will immediately start the system testing of the rounds. Until this time, the rounds will be hidden. But don't panic, this will only be temporary and we will return everything soon.

Due to the statement of Thanos in Div2E/Div1C who snapped at the servers, this round disappeared

    for each i as starting ,you can take j = i,i+1,i-1 as ending only if starting position of i > last position of j..

    Solve this problem separately for each cell. There are only three Alice moves for each cell 'i'. Alice moves the token from i to i+1, from i to i-1, or from i to i. The first and second are not valid if there is a Bob move from source to target cell. The last one is valid if there is no Bob move at that cell.

    observe that there are total of (n*3)-2 pairs you can form, just iterate over all the queries asked by bob, when you are at a query, if bob asks x+1 in some question next, then the pair (x, x+1) is invalid. the same process goes for (x, x-1) pairs, also for each question, (x, x) pair is invalid. you can easily keep track of invalid pairs in set <int> the answer is total — set.size()

    For every i, if i is not present in sequence, then the scenario (i, i), (i, i + 1) [if i < n], (i, i — 1) [if i > 1] will always print "No".

    If i is present in sequence, then, let pos be the minimum position where x[pos] = i, we need to change i to i + 1 for scenario (i, i + 1) before pos. Now, if i + 1 is not present in sequence after position pos, then scenario (i, i + 1) will answer "No". Same goes for (i, i — 1).

Is div2D KMP?

    solve k as divisors of n -> after k units of rotation for each segment there should be one segment replacing it....

UPD 4: The results will be in around 90 minutes after the end of the competition.

Do you mean results of all contests or only the onsite one? Because I don't think 90 minutes are enough for systests, and on the other hand, waiting 90 minutes for waiting for results sucks way worse than just waiting for results.

Hey, so I've received the message after the contest that the system would ignore my submissions for this contest, because of how similar my code in 1162A is with someone else's solution. It advised me to write here if it is some kind of a misunderstanding, so here I am. https://codeforces.com/contest/1162/submission/53748662 https://codeforces.com/contest/1162/submission/53746682

I can see how it is almost a 1:1 copy, but there are some differencies in spacing and naming. Plus the task didn't require writing a lot of code, so there was a chance two people would write almost the same thing. Can someone clear this up? Thanks in advance.
