AtCoder isn't working? It shows 403 on my browser. Is it my problem?

        Actually d is very simple.

        But g is also too hard for me.

          $$$G$$$ is hard for many GMs as well.

          well, don't discuss anything before this contest ends!

            Hey, This is my first contest. Where can i find the answers after the contest is finished? I heard atcoder contests are suitable for beginners. But, this is too overwhelming!!

              with dp!

              If you observe in the given equation only the numerator for the first term makes any sense (changes for different sizes of subsequence).

              So we can find the maximum value of a subsequence of length K (for K = 1 to N)

              we will use this dp value as a numerator of the first term and the rest can be substituted easily and we can find the maximum ans over all subsequences of different lengths!

      i implement detection of cycle graph as well , i got 24 tests AC and only 3 WA.

      can you give a counter example where detection of cycle graph is not working ?

        cycle will not work if you have cycle of odd length

        Just check for bipartiteness for the nodes given in the sequences for each component also make a check for S[i] == T[i] as that also leads to a no answer. Nothing more required.

    In D, you have to tell if the graph formed by the edges $$$(X_{A_i}, X_{B_j})$$$ is bipartite or not. Note that, even cycles are also bipartite graphs.

    were you finding cycles of all lengths or only odd lengths ?

    Rev. 2   Vote: I like it 0 Vote: I do not like it

    it works for even cycles (and not for odd ones) so just because a cycle exists doesn't mean the ans should be no

I think F is a famous problem in Luogu named "Stars in the Window".

Why does my D-question program have a test point wrong? I treat a[i] and b[i] as two nodes of a graph to determine whether they are bipartite graphs. https://atcoder.jp/contests/abc327/submissions/47266143

I liked the overall problem set !!

D and F were my favorite. However, it would have been better if the input in F were like $$$X_i, T_i$$$ instead of $$$T_i, X_i$$$, got some wa's due to that lol.

Lesson learnt. On AtCoder, I can try unordered_map when map causes TLE. I didn't do so so far because on Codeforces, unordered_map is subjected to hacking. On AtCoder, there is no such concern.

My TLE solution on E with map: submission

My AC solution on E with unordered_map: submission

I ended up replacing the map by vector during contest though.

    Order of the performance numbers matters. It is a penalty when the performance numbers show a downwards trend.

In G — Many Good Tuple Problems Editorial(English Version)

g(n,m):= (the number of simple connected graphs with n vertices and m edges, where each vertex is painted either white or black, and no edge connects vertices with the same color).

should be

h(n,m):= (the number of simple connected graphs with n vertices and m edges, where each vertex is painted either white or black, and no edge connects vertices with the same color).

    And I think that the calculation formula for $$$f(n, m)$$$ should be

    $$$f(n,m) = \dfrac{h(n,m)}{2} + \sum\limits_{1 \le i < n}\sum\limits_{0 \le j \le m}\dbinom{n-1}{i-1}\dfrac{h(i, j)}{2}f(n -i, m - j)$$$

      I think you are right cause C(n-1,i-1) are not symmetric about n. Maybe just a typo.

    Also 'b(M,k) equals M! times the Stirling number of the second kind, S(M,k)' should be k! times S(M,k) right?

HELP, Anyone can explain the F solution? Editorials become somewhat complex to understand. Just explain the part, what you are storing, updating, query..... in the data structure, and why.
