We call a function good if its domain of definition is some set of integers and if in case it's defined in x and x-1, f(x) = f(x-1) + 1 or f(x) = f(x-1). Tanya has found n good functions f_{1}, …, f_{n}, which are defined on all integers from 0 to 10^{18} and f_i(0) = 0 and f_i(10^{18}) = L for all i from 1 to n. It's...

One common way of digitalizing sound is to record sound intensity at particular time moments. For each time moment intensity is recorded as a non-negative integer. Thus we can represent a sound file as an array of n non-negative integers. If there are exactly K distinct values in the array, then we need k = ⌈ log_{2} ...

The new pedestrian zone in Moscow city center consists of n squares connected with each other by n - 1 footpaths. We define a simple path as a sequence of squares such that no square appears in this sequence twice and any two adjacent squares in this sequence are directly connected with a footpath. The size of a simple...

Ivan plays an old action game called Heretic. He's stuck on one of the final levels of this game, so he needs some help with killing the monsters. The main part of the level is a large corridor (so large and narrow that it can be represented as an infinite coordinate line). The corridor is divided into two parts; let'...

There is a river of width n. The left bank of the river is cell 0 and the right bank is cell n + 1 (more formally, the river can be represented as a sequence of n + 2 cells numbered from 0 to n + 1). There are also m wooden platforms on a river, the i-th platform has length c_i (so the i-th platform takes c_i consecuti...

Bob is about to take a hot bath. There are two taps to fill the bath: a hot water tap and a cold water tap. The cold water's temperature is t1, and the hot water's temperature is t2. The cold water tap can transmit any integer number of water units per second from 0 to x1, inclusive. Similarly, the hot water tap can ...

You are given two integers a and b, and q queries. The i-th query consists of two numbers l_i and r_i, and the answer to it is the number of integers x such that l_i ≀ x ≀ r_i, and ((x mod a) mod b) β‰  ((x mod b) mod a). Calculate the answer for each query. Recall that y mod z is the remainder of the division of y by z...

Given a set of integers (it can contain equal elements). You have to split it into two subsets A and B (both of them can contain equal elements or be empty). You have to maximize the value of mex(A)+mex(B). Here mex of a set denotes the smallest non-negative integer that doesn't exist in the set. For example: * m...

You have n distinct points (x_1, y_1),…,(x_n,y_n) on the plane and a non-negative integer parameter k. Each point is a microscopic steel ball and k is the attract power of a ball when it's charged. The attract power is the same for all balls. In one operation, you can select a ball i to charge it. Once charged, all ba...
