## 557A — Ilya and Diplomas

This problem can be solved in the different ways. We consider one of them — parsing cases.

If max1 + min2 + min3 ≤ n then the optimal solution is (n - min2 - min3, min2, min3).

Else if max1 + max2 + min3 ≤ n then the optimal solution is (max1, n - max1 - min3, min3).

Else the optimal solution is (max1, max2, n - max1 - max2).

This solution is correct because of statement. It is guaranteed that min1 + min2 + min3 ≤ n ≤ max1 + max2 + max3.

Asymptotic behavior of this solution — O(1).

## 557B — Pasha and Tea

This problem can be solved in different ways too. We consider the simplest solution whici fits in the given restrictions.

At first we sort all cups in non-decreasing order of their volumes. Due to reasons of greedy it is correct thatsorted cups with numbers from 1 to n will be given to girls and cups with numbers from n + 1 to 2 * n will be given to boys.

Now we need to use binary search and iterate on volume of tea which will be poured for every girl. Let on current iteration (lf + rg) / 2 = mid. Then if for i from 1 to n it is correct that mid ≤ ai and for i from n + 1 to 2 * n it is correct that 2 * mid ≤ ai then we need to make lf = mid. Else we need to make rg = mid.

Asymptotic behavior of this solution — O(n * log(n)) where n — count of cups.

## 557C — Arthur and Table

This problem can be solved as follows. At first we need to sort all legs in non-descending order of their length. Also we need to use array cnt[].

Let iterate on length of legs (which will stand table) from the least. Let this lenght is equals to maxlen. Count of units of energy which we need for this we will store in variable cur.

Obviously that we must unscrew all legs with lenght more than maxlen. For calculate count of units of energy for doing it we can use array with suffix sums, for exapmle. Then we add this value to cur.

If count of legs with length maxlen is not strictly greater than the number of the remaining legs then we need to unscrew some count of legs with length less than maxlen. For this we can use array cnt[]. In cnt[i] we will store count of legs with difficulty of unscrew equals to i. In this array will store information about legs which already viewed.

We will iterate on difficulty of unscrew from one and unscrew legs with this difficulties (and add this difficulties to variable cur) while count of legs with length maxlen will not be strictly greater than the number of the remaining legs.

When it happens we need to update answer with variable cur.

Asymptotic behavior of this solution — O(n * d), where n — count of legs and d — difference between maximal and minimal units of energy which needed to unscrew some legs.

## 557D — Vitaliy and Cycle

To solve this problem we can use dfs which will check every connected component of graph on bipartite. It is clearly that count of edges which we need to add in graph to get the odd cycle is no more than three.

Answer to this problem is three if count of edges in graph is zero. Then the number of ways to add three edges in graph to make odd cycle is equals to n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) / 6 where n — count of vertices in graph.

Answer to this problem is two if there is no connected component with number of vertices more than two. Then the number of ways to add two edges in graph to make odd cycle is equals to m * (n - 2) where m — number of edges in graph.

Now we have one case when there is at least one connected component with number of vertices more than two. Now we need to use dfs and try to split every component in two part. If for some component we can't do it that means that graph already has odd cycle and we need to print "0 1" and we can now finish our algorithm.

If all connected components in graph are bipartite then we need to iterate on them. Let cnt1 is the count of vertices in one part of current component and cnt2 — count of vertices in the other part. If number of vertices in this component more than two we need to add to answer cnt1 * (cnt1 - 1) / 2 and cnt2 * (cnt2 - 1) / 2.

Asymptotic behavior of this solution — O(n + m), where n — number of vertices in graph and m — number of edges.

## 557E — Anya and Half-palindrome

This problem can be solved with help of dynamic programming.

At first we calculate matrix good[][]. In good[i][j] we put true, if substring from position i to position j half-palindrome. Else we put in good[i][j]false. We can do it with iterating on "middle" of half-palindrome and expanding it to the left and to the right. There are 4 cases of "middle" but we omit it because they are simple enough.

Now we need to use Trie and we will put in it suffixes of given string. Also we will store array cnt[]. In cnt[v] we will store number of half-palindromes which ends in vertex v of our Trie. Let now we put in tree suffix which starts in position i, current symbol of string which we put is in position j and we go in vertex v of out Trie. Then if good[i][j] = true we add one to cnt[v].

Now with help of dfs let calculate for every vertex sum[v] — sum of numbers which stored in array cnt[] for vertex v and for vertices in all subtrees of vertex v.

It is left only to restore answer. Start from root of our Trie. We will store answer in variable ans. In variable k store number of required substring. Let now we in vertex v, by letter 'a' we can go in vertex toa and by letter 'b' — in vertex tob.

Then if sum[toa] ≤ k we make ans +  = 'a' and go in vertex toa of our Trie. Else we need to make as follows: k = sum[toa], ans +  = 'b' and go in vertex tob of our Trie.

When k will be  ≤ 0 print resulting string ans and finish algorithm.

Asymptotic behavior of this solution — O(szalph * n2) where szalph — size of input alphabet (in this problem it equals to two) and n — length of given string.

•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 quick, but not so good in my opinion. I still don't understand the solution to problem C. How am I supposed to find the sum of energies needed for unscrewing the legs of length smaller then the max.
•  » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   +1 My solution: - Sort based on height.- Iterate through the different heights (Consider the ith height as the maximum height)- This means you have to cut all legs that have length more than i (Use cumulative sum to find that).- Say the number of legs of length i is k- You have to leave exactly k-1 legs of height < i. The k-1 legs you leave should have the maximal energies => You have to choose k-1 maximum energy legs whose length are less than i and cut the rest.- For this I used a map (With a little bit of pre-processing). Iterate from 200 to 0 and while count < k-1.- While iterating, if there exists a leg of height < i and if count > k-1, decrease count. Else break- Use cumulative sum to find total energy you have to spend in order to have the ith length as maximum.- View my submission for further details:

 » 5 years ago, # |   0 Can someone please explain C in more details?
•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ | ← Rev. 2 →   +4 Basically you have to ensure that in remaining legs, frequency of the maximum element is greater than half of number of remaining legs.We can do this by first choosing the value of maximum element(of remaining legs ). In order to ensure that this is indeed the maximum, we remove all the legs whose length is greater than this value.After that,we also have to ensure that frequency of the maximum element is greater than half of number of remaining legs. To do this, we remove appropriate number of legs whose length is less than this decided value.For a given choice of value of maximum element, we can calculate the energy in O(200) by just maintaining the frequency of energy required to remove the legs.
•  » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 Can u explain how u did this "To do this, we remove appropriate number of legs whose length is less than this decided value." You have to remove weight of ( remaining elements — (no of elements of current leg)/2 — 1 ) elements and these elements should be min possible.
•  » » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 Keep a hash array of energies. So,delete from it the minimum ones. Now after you are done for length 'l',remove all the energies of that value from the hash array(I mean decrement). I kept a list of all energies belonging to a length. You can refer this code.Its sort of documented.
•  » » » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 can you please add some more comment in your code for more understanding like what is x.what does this(Removing the maximum leg--check for some other possibility) imply. what are you doing in following lines of code for(j=1;j<210;j++) { if(h2[j]>=r) { temp2+=r*j; break; } else { temp2+=h2[j]*j; r-=h2[j]; } } ans=min(ans,temp2); //~ cout<<"Length "<
•  » » » » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 Basically the idea is that whenever you consider length 'l' to be the length of table,then you will have to remove all legs of higher length. That is what I am doing there,removing from my hash table,all energy values of higher lengths. And x & r are just variables. x means if I consider 'l' to be the highest length I will have to keep 2*l -1 legs and remove (r)=n-(2*l -1). Thats the blueprint :) Hope it helps!!

 » 5 years ago, # |   +6 This is how I solved D. 1st thing to notice was that only 3 edges are sufficient to create an odd cycle. Case 1: Edges needed 0. Just check if a graph (every component) is bipartite or not. If it is not than the graph contains odd cycle. Ans is (0, 1). Case 2: Edges needed 1. For this case color every component with 2 colors. Lets say we use A, B to color the nodes. If two nodes have same color than we can add edge between them to create an odd cycle. So ans for this case is (1, naC2 + nbC2) where na is the no.of nodes with color A and nb is the no of nodes with color B. We need to sum this for all components. Case 3: Edges needed 2. For this case do dfs to count no of components of size 2 and size 1. Ans for this case is (2, 4 * two_cntC2 + two_cnt * (n — 2 * two_cnt)). Every two components of size 2 gives 4 different ways. We also add the ans for the case where individual node components are present which is basically equal to two_cnt * (n — 2 * two_cnt). Case 4: Edges needed 3. That is every node is disjoint. Ans is (3, nC3).
•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ | ← Rev. 2 →   0 Edit: Got it! Great question! :D
•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 How do we know that we need edges 1/2/3/0 ? Please see this , i could solve only for the no. of ways( hope it is correct ).
•  » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 If graph already contains an odd cycle than we don't need to add any edge i.e this is the case where needed edges = 0. If any component of graph contains more than 2 nodes than we can add 1 edge to create a cycle (this component will not have any odd cycle as we are already considering that case separately). If the max size of any component in graph is 2 than we need 2 edges to create a cycle. comp1 = A-B, comp2 = C-D to connect these and create odd cycle we need 2 edges. If graph contains all the nodes separately, i.e max size of any component is 1 than we need 3 edges to create an odd cycle. I hope it clears your doubt. For reference here is my solution. 11865575

 » 5 years ago, # |   0 Hash can be also used to find if a substring from i to j is half palindrome or not.
 » 5 years ago, # | ← Rev. 2 →   +20 Well, I solved problem C a little differently.First we sort the legs by their lengths in ascending order (the energy values don't matter). Then we split the sorted list into blocks, where the legs in the same block have the same length. length: 1 1 2 2 6 6 6 energy: 5 5 4 8 2 3 3 After that we iterate over every block. In iteration i, we try to find the answer when the legs in block i are the longest remaining.In iteration i, obviously, all legs in block i must be kept in order to find the optimal answer. And we must remove all legs in blocks from i + 1 to block-count (since legs in block i are the longest remaining), and keep at most block[i].size - 1 legs in blocks from 1 to i — 1 (to keep the table stable). Therefore the answer equals tototal energy of block (i + 1)~block_count + total energy of block 1~(i - 1) — total energy of the (block[i].size - 1) largest elements in block 1~(i - 1).For the first and second part we can either use partial sums or calculate while iterating. For the third part, we can use a std::multiset to store all previous legs' energy values. For any k, the k largest elements can be accessed by just iterating k times in the multiset. Asymptotic time complexity is... , I think?My code (written rapidly during the contest and may not be so elegant): 11859771
•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 Shouldn't this be subtracted total energy of the (block[i].size — 1) smallest energy elements in block 1~(i — 1) from total energy of block 1~(i — 1).
•  » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 No, u r right. We should subtract total energy of block 1~(i — 1) — total energy of the (block[i].size — 1) largest elements in block 1~(i — 1)
•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 Hi cyand1317, I think I used the same method as you with the difference that I used a priority queue to get the legs of highest energies from the legs of smaller sizes.But for some reason I'm getting WA in case 8 and I cannot check why because it's very big. I get the correct result with all the cases where n < 30.Could you please take a look at my code?
•  » » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   +3 Hello. Glad that I can help. I'm taking a look at your code and here's what I've found so far.There is a potential crash in this code. Try using a test case with n = 5 and length values 1 8 8 8 8. Whoa!This is because when your program scans the second block (with length = 8 and blocksize = 4), it tries to poll the blocksize - 1 = 3 largest elements in the previous blocks, which only has one element. Then PriorityQueue.poll() returns null and causes the crash.However, this code still doesn't give correct answers after I fixed this bug (line #64, 11875986). I'll keep trying! (I ran into similar situations lots of times before and I'd really like to find an efficient way to get out of them :P)

You can disable it by adding std::ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false) as the first line of your program (before any input/output operations).Also, if you alternate between cin and cout, it will flush output before each input operation (which is needed when cin and cout refer to the console, so the user sees the prompt before having to enter something), which can lead to very slow IO (common issue in problems where you need to answer lots of queries). This can be disabled with std::cin.tie(nullptr).

Let there be total of CNT number of these legs with length L. Now what you need to find is CNT-1 legs with max energy and length less than L.

In other containers like a vector you can use back(), but there is no such method in a set.However, that block isn't reached in the first test case anyway. You didn't initialize mini, so if it starts out as zero in GCC, you will get zero as your answer. In VS it starts out as -858993460, which is even worse.

•  » » » » » 5 years ago, # ^ | ← Rev. 3 →   0 150-200 is a way too much, considering doubles only have 52 significant bits. Unless the interval converges to zero, the last 100-150 iterations will do nothing.In fact, you can do while (x != y) and it will do 50-60 iterations in most cases — except when the answer is zero, in which case it can do about a 1000 iterations. Of course, you shouldn't do that because you're likely to run into the same problem as with int binsearch — when x and y are the closest possible numbers, (x+y)/2 will be equal to either x or y, and if you guess "incorrectly", you will get an infinite loop. You could fix it by using std::nextafter (i.e. if you know that the answer for m is no, then technically you need to set y to the number just below m, or std::nextafter(m, l)), but that's not pretty.Not to mention that this problem doesn't need binary search anyway :(

 » 5 years ago, # |   +3 For 557C, we can use the same idea to find the solution without too much thing to compute.The idea is (reiterating author's approach): Let's say we want to keep legs with length k. All legs length greater than k must be removed (otherwise k is not the maximum), the remaining is to make sure removal of legs length less than k requires minimal energy.Observation: If there are P legs whose lengths are less than k, and there are Q legs with length k. You need to remove at least P - Q + 1 legs whose lengths are less than k to make the table stable.Observation: By above, you need to keep at most Q - 1 legs whose lengths are less than k to make the table stable. Otherwise, there are at least Q non k-legs with Q k-legs, and k-legs is obviously not the majority. Table is not stable.Observation: Remove legs with minimal energy is equivalent to keep legs with maximal energy.So, you need to compute two things: total energy to remove (now means keep) k-legs, number of k-legs. Enumerate all possible maximal k, get the keep energy for k-legs, plus get the sum of the largest Q - 1 energies of legs whose length is less than k. The way to do it is similar to the O(nd) approach described by author, but we take the exact opposite values. Find the maximum values among all choices of k, get the answer by total energy — this max energy.Doing so does not require suffix sum.

 » 5 years ago, # |   0 I found the statement of the Problem A to be not clear. I could not understand the fact that if we already have max possible A diplomas, then try finding max possible B diplomas and further max possible C diplomas.
•  » » 5 years ago, # ^ |   0 My solution is a bit different from the author' solution:11892821Call t1, t2, t3 is the number of diplomas in first, second and third degree in the optimal answer. We know that t1+t2+t3 = n.Our goal is to maximize t1 first, then maximize t2. So we will first make t1 as large as possible. We knew that 't1 <= max1'. However, we'll need to take care about the fact that t2 >= min2 and t3 >= min3, too. So, we'll have n-t1 = t2+t3 >= min2+min3, which mean t1 <= n-min2-min3. Finally, we'll have t1 = min(max1, n-min2-min3).At this point, we'll have n := n-t1 diplomas left. Now, we will take do the similar thing again, make t2 as large as possible. We know that t2 <= max2 and t3 >= min3 <=> n-t2 >= min3 <=> t2 <= n-min3. So we'll have t2 = min(max2, n-min3).We now know the value of t1 and t2, so we also get the value of t3, which equal n-t1-t2.

 » 5 years ago, # |   0 I was tricked by myself when I attempted to solve D.The definition of odd cycle is obvious: Any graph that is not bi-colorable iff it has odd cycle (proof omitted). So if the graph has odd cycle it's done, we don't need to add any edge and this is the only way to achieve minimum (thus 0 1). Note that bicolorable graph is bipartite.The solution remains to categorize answers for different class of bipartite graph. Note that you need at most 3 edges to form an odd cycle in any cases, so just think about when you need to answer 1, 2, and 3.Case 1: when minimum = 3. It means you need to form a triangle by picking three vertices. This also means that there are no edges, thus maximum vertex degree = 0. In this case, answer is to pick any three vertices, which is .Case 2: when minimum = 2. It means that no vertex has at least two edges (otherwise minimum = 1 by joining two vertices from the two edges to form a triangle). Which implies that maximum vertex degree = 1. To form a triangle, we must use any of such edge (u, v) and find other vertex w and use two edges to form a triangle. Note that since maximum degree = 1, all m edges are the required edge. So the answer is m × (n - 2) (for each edge, pick other vertices to form triangle).Case 3: when minimum = 1. This means that maximum degree is at least 2. This is also where I got tricked. In this case, we don't just want to count number of ways to form triangle, since one can add an edge to form an odd cycle. Consider this: W-B-W-B-W, where W means a white vertex, B means a black vertex. One can add just on edge, that connects the first and the last W, to form an odd cycle with length 5. Given this, the answer is much simpler: notice that for any connected bipartite graph, connecting any two vertices of the same side breaks bipartite-ness, thus odd cycle exists. So the answer is simple: for each bipartite connected components, the answer for that component is the number of way to connect two vertices on the same side. Suppose the bipartite graph has U vertices on the left, V vertices on the right, the answer is . Indeed, what if the problem is like: find the minimum number of edge added to form a triangle, and how many ways to do. When the graph is not bipartite, I think it requires matrix multiplication. If the graph is bipartite, the answer remains the same when the minimum edge added is 3 or 2. When minimum edge added is 1, I can't come up of anything that is faster than O(n2).

•  » » 3 years ago, # ^ |   +8 My approach have time complexity is O(N(logN)2), which not depend on value of di.First of all, I sort the array with depend in l[i]. Second, sort the array with depend on d[i]. Now for each leg, we know the ordinal of their energy units. For example, in test case 3, our sorted array (called a[]) and the ordinal of their energy units (called c[]): a[] = [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3] c[] = [5, 6, 3, 4, 1, 2]So we now, for the $i$-th leg, we have greedy approach: If we choose to use this leg, then we will use all of the legs that have the same value of length with this chosen leg. Call the number of legs that have the same length with i-th leg is k. The enery when we chose i-th leg is sum enery units of all the leg have greater length and sum of the i - (2k - 1) smallest enery units leg of which length is strictly smaller than i-th leg. Because all table must have more than a half legs of greatest length, so is we choose i-th leg is greatest length, the maximal numbers of legs that a table could have is 2k - 1 legs. To make i-th leg is the greatest length's leg, then we need to remove all the legs have greater length and take no more than k - 1 legs have smaller length. At the moment, we have i legs with have not greater than i leg, so greedily, we just need to remove i - (2k - 1) legs that have smallest enery units.Now, for each leg, we could easily use prefix sum to find sum of all the legs have greater length than our chosen leg's length. However, the harder problem is find the sum of i - (2k - 1) smallest leg's enery units. Remember about the array c[], which we store the ordinal number of the leg's enery units. Now, after attempt the i-th leg, we will knows that it exist the c[i]-th smallest enery units value.For example, when we check the 4-th leg (base on array a[]), we will have these valid enery units values [0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1]. As we want to find sum of i - (2k - 1) = 4 - (2 * 2 - 1) = 1 smallest value, so we will find sum of 1-th smallest enery units, in this case is 3.Also notice that, the numbers of valid enery units values from 1 to j is always not less than the numbers of valid enery units values from 1 to i which i > j. So we could use binary seach to find the smaller number x that from 1 to x we can find i - (2k - 1) valid value. To do each of this operation in O(logN), we could use Fenwich or Segment Tree. After found the result x, our answer in case we use the i-th leg is sumLengthSmallestValidValue(1, x)+sumLength(i+1, n). In the other hand, to make sure that we just find the sum of the smallest enery units legs which have length strictly less than our chosen leg's length, after we check all the same length legs, then we update, not update for each leg (we could use stack or queue to solve that — if the i-th leg is diffence than the i - 1-th leg, than we update all the legs that stored in the queue now, other wise, if the i-th leg is same as the i - 1-th leg, push i to the queue).Here is my code which uses Segment tree: 23901663. So the time complexity is O(N(logN)2) due to using binary search on Segment tree for each leg. This is the first time I write the solution, so sorry for my bad idea's expression. Feel free for asking me any question, I will trying my best to explain :D.
