678A - Вася любит числа

The problem was suggested by Abdrakhman Ismail bash.

We should find minimal x, so x·k > n. Easy to see that . To learn more about floor/ceil functions I reccomend the book of authors Graham, Knuth, Patashnik "Concrete Mathematics". There is a chapter there about that functions and their properties.

С++ solution

Complexity: O(1).

678B - Такой же календарь

The problem was suggested by Arthur Jaworski KingArthur.

Two calendars are same if and only if they have the same number of days and starts with the same day of a week. So we should simply iterate over years and maintain the day of a week of January, 1st (for example). Easy to see that the day of a week increases by one each year except of the leap years, when it increases by two.

C++ solution

Complexity: O(1) — easy to see that we will not iterate more than some small fixed constant times.

678C - Мила и шоколад

The problem was suggested by Sheikh Monir skmonir.

Easy to see that we can paint with both colours only tiles with the numbers multiple of lcm(a, b). Obviously that tiles should be painted with more expensive colour. So the answer equals to .

C++ solution

Complexity: O(log(max(a, b))).

678D - Итерированная линейная функция

TODO

678E - Очередной турнир ситхов

The problem was suggested and prepared by Alexey Dergunov dalex.

Let's solve the problem using dynamic programming. zmask, i — the maximal probability of Ivans victory if the siths from the mask already fought and the i-th sith left alive. To calculate that DP we should iterate over the next sith (he will fight against the i-th sith): .

C++ solution

Time complexity: O(2nn2).

Memory complexity: O(2nn).

678F - Лена и запросы

The problem was suggested by AmirMohammad Dehghan PrinceOfPersia.

Let's interpret the problem geometrically: the pairs from the set are the lines and the problem to find to topmost intersection of the vertical line with the lines from the set.

Let's split the queries to blocks. Consider the lines added before the current block and that will not deleted in the current block. Let's build the lower envelope by that lines. Now to calculate the answer to the query we should get maximum over the lines from the envelope and the lines from the block before the current query that is not deleted yet. There are no more than lines from the block, so we can iterate over them. Let's find the answers from the envelope for all queries of the third type from the block at once: we should sort them and iterate over envelope using ``\texttt{two pointers technique}''.

C++ solution

Complexity: .
