Write Python code to solve the task. Recently Johnny have learned bogosort sorting algorithm. He thought that it is too ineffective. So he decided to improve it. As you may know this algorithm shuffles the sequence randomly until it is sorted. Johnny decided that we don't need to shuffle the whole sequence every time. ...
Step 1: To solve this problem, we need to understand the concept of Johnny's improved bogosort algorithm and how it affects the number of shuffles required to sort the sequence. Step 2: We need to implement a function to calculate the expected amount of shuffles for the improved algorithm to sort the sequence of the ...

Write Python code to solve the task. Little girl Alyona is in a shop to buy some copybooks for school. She study four subjects so she wants to have equal number of copybooks for each of the subjects. There are three types of copybook's packs in the shop: it is possible to buy one copybook for a rubles, a pack of two co...
Step 1: To solve this problem, we need to find the minimum amount of rupees Alyona should pay to buy the number of copybooks such that the sum of her current copybooks and the new ones is divisible by 4, and the number of copybooks of each type is equal. Step 2: We can calculate the number of each type of copybook sh...

Write Python code to solve the task. Recently, Olya received a magical square with the size of 2^n× 2^n. It seems to her sister that one square is boring. Therefore, she asked Olya to perform exactly k splitting operations. A Splitting operation is an operation during which Olya takes a square with side a and cuts it...
Step 1: The given problem involves performing splitting operations on a square of size 2^n× 2^n and determining if it is possible to satisfy a certain condition based on the size of the square. To solve this problem, we need to consider the conditions for Olya's happiness and how they are affected by the splitting ope...

Step 1: The current solution is quite complex and seems to rely on precomputed values and decision logic. We will convert the code to a more structured format and improve the readability and maintainability. Let's start by clearly breaking down the conditional logic and identifying any patterns in the decision-making ...

Write Python code to solve the task. You are given n pairs of integers (a_1, b_1), (a_2, b_2), …, (a_n, b_n). All of the integers in the pairs are distinct and are in the range from 1 to 2 ⋅ n inclusive. Let's call a sequence of integers x_1, x_2, …, x_{2k} good if either * x_1 < x_2 > x_3 < … < x_{2k-2} > x_{2k-1...
Step 1: The problem is asking to find the largest subset of indices such that the sequence formed by choosing the pairs at the selected indices is good. Step 2: To solve this, we can iterate through the pairs and check if each pair forms a sequence that satisfies the given conditions for a good sequence. Step 3: We ...

Write Python code to solve the task. Nowadays it is becoming increasingly difficult to park a car in cities successfully. Let's imagine a segment of a street as long as L meters along which a parking lot is located. Drivers should park their cars strictly parallel to the pavement on the right side of the street (rememb...
Step 1: The logic here is to find a parking space for a car based on the distance between other parked cars and the parking lot boundaries. Step 2: The program keeps track of the parked cars and uses the distances defined in the input to determine whether there is adequate space for a parking request. Step 3: It the...
