Dear Codeforces,

I am honored to share that the X-th edition of the AGM International Programming Contest has officially begun!

AGM is addressed to High School students who compete in teams of up to 3 members, ICPC-style. The contest has 2 rounds:

  1. The Qualification Round held online, on Saturday, the 23rd of March 2024 between 14:00 and 19:00 GMT+2 (timeanddate)
  2. The Final Round held onsite in Bucharest. The date and time will be announced soon.

Registrations are opened until the 20th of March at 17:00 GMT+2: https://forms.gle/WbS4zjsJhBaXmjYHA

The problem sets are entirely developed by current and former university students from the United Kingdom and Romania.

The top 10 teams of the Final Round will receive Diplomas. Additionally, the top 3 teams of the Final Round will receive cash prizes:

  • I-st place: 1200 RON
  • II-nd place: 900 RON
  • III-rd place: 600 RON

In the meantime, please have a look over the last four years' problem sets here.

Here are some useful links:

    Additionally, when using code from external sources, include a reference. Submitting unreasonably similar, unreferenced code blocks will be treated as collusion.

    This was included in the mail, so I understand that it is allowed.

Great contest! Was it intended to block $$$\mathcal{O(n\log n)}$$$ solutions to problem "erase sequence"?

Also, when will the solutions be available/when will we be able to upsolve?
