I have two different solutions which handle this test very differently:

20 5
24
0.0 - 1.0
0.1 - 1.0
0.2 - 1.1
0.3 - 1.2
0.4 - 1.3
0.5 - 1.4
0.6 - 1.5
0.7 - 1.6
0.8 - 1.7
0.9 - 1.8
0.10 - 1.9
0.11 - 1.10
0.12 - 1.11
0.13 - 1.12
0.14 - 1.13
0.15 - 1.14
0.16 - 1.15
0.17 - 1.16
0.18 - 1.17
0.18 - 2.0
0.18 - 3.0
0.18 - 4.0
0.18 - 5.0
0.19 - 1.18
0 19

One of them might be even close to TLE, but both my solutions accepted here with time 0.015 s, which makes me think there is no such test in the list of tests.
I think this test should be added...

I don't understand, why did the authors create such a question that gets AC only if solved with Python or Java.

"...Она сразу же позвонила своей начальнице, затем своей подруге Лене, находящейся у неё в подчинении, потом Кате и Маше...". In my solution she can call friends, and then her boss. And solution, when she at first call the boss and then friends, get WA4.

...the(n) Masha...

I don't understand what dp has to do with this problem. I solved it using string hashing.

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
    int a, b, c, max, min, med;
    scanf("%d %d %d", &a, &b, &c);
    max = a >= b && a >= c? a: b >= a && b >= c? b: c;
    min = a <= b && a <= c? a: b <= a && b <= c? b: c;
    med = a + b + c - min - max;
    if (med == 0)
        printf("%d", - max);
    else
        printf("%d", min - max * med);
    return 0;
}

I solved the problem the way I understood it but then when staring at the discussion page I discovered that buying the same tap twice is allowed.

Binary search the optimal value when only latin and spaces. You don't have to iterate through all m. Calculate transition for n in O(1) time. Overall complexity should be something like O(|s|log(m)).

If your code needs to calculate 10^i, then don't use BINPOW. Just precalculate. It wasted my time a little bit.

The solution is actually really easy when not dp. It is just the count of numbers that are divisible by (1ll<<i) and only by (1ll<<i) times 2(i-1). If you just draw 1-15 tree and try to solve for 1 15 you'll observe it. You just have to make these checks (i'm too lazy to explain it, but if you want just comment):

    for (int i = 30; i >= 1; i--) {
        int powerOf2 = 1ll << i;
        int ci = countMultiples(n, m, powerOf2);
        ci -= al;
        int r = m / powerOf2;
        int l = n / powerOf2;
        an += 2 * (i - 1) * ci;

        if (m % powerOf2 == 0 && (r % 2 != 0 || r == 0) && ci > 0) {// <-- These are the checks
            an -= (i - 1);
        }
        if (n % powerOf2 == 0 && (l % 2 != 0 || l == 0) && ci > 0) {
            an -= (i - 1);
        }
        al += ci;
    }

thx~

Hello, could you check if my test is correct?

Answer: 222 (??)
~Thanks

Maybe someone will need it.
You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression


#include <iostream>

using namespace std;
int main()
{
    int a;
    cin >> a;
    int result = a > 0 ? a * (a + 1) / 2 : - a * (a - 1) / 2 + 1;
    cout << result;
}

I had WA#7 and it was passed (and problem become accepted) when I fixed the case where the Y-cord of one of points was equal to B + C. So test 7 is something like that:

A B C
X1 B + C
X2 Y2

Good luck!

"covers segment [0, M] completely" means:

0 1
2 3
does not cover [0,3] completely

0 1
1 3
covers [0,3] completely

Hello! I found test, that crash some AC solutions (solution of my friend with self-created GCD func), please, add it to the system. Here it is:
