Hello, Codeforces!

The day before yesterday there was an NTO olympiad. And this Saturday we will hold an official mirror based on her tasks!

The mirror will be held on the Sort Me platform and will be ranked.

Due to the difference of a few days, this is not a mirror, but rather a front camera. But the conditions coincide with both the format of the NTO (except for debuffing) and the format of our rounds: 5 tasks, 2 hours, IOI (test groups), up to 100 points for each task.

The contest will be rated!

Please, participants of the NTO Finals refrain from participating in the mirror of the Olympiad!

Registration is available at link. The contest will start March 23 at 18:00 MSC.

Good luck! May the strongest one win!

Many thanks to Anecstasiya for help in the last task, and also to Alexey Egorov and MEPhI team for excellent organization of the contest and help in testing! Also thanks to sadfun for the opportunity to host the mirror of the Olympiad on the sort-me platform!

Hello, Codeforces!

Congratulations to the 22 on the start of the new olympiad season! I wish your olympiad season a good one. I especially wish success to 11th graders, who will have to choose universities and apply for them this year.

I would like to invite you to participate in the mirror phase 1 of the National Olympiad in Informatics. The mirror will be held on codeforces.

This competition will be interesting rather for weaker participants (grey — turquoise on codeforces). The contest should not be difficult for experienced competitors.

The [contest_time:392106] will take place at [contest:392106].

  • The competition is by IOI standards (partial points, test groups). You will be given 4 tasks for 5 hours

  • Unrated round

  • Use of any material published before the round is permitted.

Tasks together with me were proofread for errors and tested by Irsanik, xyz., opPO, ma_sad.

Many thanks to MikeMirzayanov for Polygon and Codeforces.

Thanks a lot to Borunov for help with tournament setup in Yandex Contest system!

Hello, Codeforces!

I didn't want to talk here about politics, but yet the thought that this can happen in a civilized society in the 21st century is frightening.

I constantly monitor the situation (I am from Belarus), but I see very conflicting information. Ukrainians, brothers, how are you doing now? Please reply, we are all very worried about you!

Hold on! I hope this fratricidal war ends soon. It's one thing to read about it in books, and another — see everything with your own eyes.
