I apologize to the participants of the round. It happened that I accidentally had run improper script and it rebooted the judging machines. It is very insulting, because most problems were proposed by me and I hoped to host an interesting competition for you. A lot of effort was spent on preparation. Apparently, the mistake of just such a human character happened for the first time. I really hope not to repeat it in the future.

Mail.Ru Group совместно с МФТИ, МГТУ им. Н. Э. Баумана и Codeforces в третий раз запускает Технокубок — совместную олимпиаду по программированию для школьников. В этом учебном году олимпиада вошла в перечень олимпиад школьников, повысив свой уровень до второго — круг учебных заведений, дающих льготы победителям и призерам, значительно расширился. Лучшие участники получат ценные призы от компании Apple.

Сразиться за звание самого талантливого молодого программиста приглашаются учащиеся средних образовательных учреждений 8 — 11 классов.

Победители и призеры олимпиады будут определены по результатам очного этапа, который будет проведен в Москве весной 2018 года на базе площадок МГТУ им. Н.Э.Баумана и МФТИ.
