Contest Specifics

Logistics

  • The contest lasts 5 hours (12:00-5:00 PM) at the PETR 118 and will be held through codeforces.com.
  • You will be required to set up an account on Codeforces, and should do so before registering.
  • Participants need to sign up in advance.
  • Solutions to problems are submitted by uploading code, which will be compiled and run against test cases. Problems typically have a time limit of 1 second for the code to solve each test case. There will be between 9 - 12 problems in total.

Problems

  • There will be between 9 - 12 problems in total.
  • Solutions to problems are submitted by uploading code, which will be compiled and run against test cases.
  • Problems typically have a time limit of 1 second for the code to solve each test case.
  • Problems are not given in order of difficulty.
  • Input is read from standard input, and output is written to standard output (for C++, this is cin and cout).

Judging

  • Competitors are ranked by number of problems solved.
  • The tiebreaker is the total amount of time used to solve the problems, with a 20 minute penalty for each incorrect submission if the problem is eventually solved.
  • Problems typically have a time limit of 1 second for the code to solve each test case.
