Invitation to NUS CS3233 Final Team Contest 2023 Mirror

Hello, Codeforces community!

We are happy to invite you to participate in National University of Singapore (NUS) CS3233 Final Team Contest 2023 Mirror on . CS3233 is a course offered by NUS to prepare students in competitive problem solving.

The contest is unofficial and will be held in Codeforces Gym. Standard ICPC rules (Unrated, ICPC Rules, Teams Preferred) apply. The contest is unrated. Note the unusual starting time.

The problems are written and prepared by user202729_, rama_pang, and pooty.

We would also like to thank:

• Dr. Steven Halim for coordinating and teaching the CS3233 course;
• user202729_ and rama_pang as teaching assistants;
• stack.py (Pyqe, hocky, faustaadp) for testing the contest;
• errorgorn for existing;
• the Kattis team for the platform used in the official contest; and finally
• MikeMirzayanov for the amazing Codeforces and Polygon platform!

The contest will last for 5 hours and consist of 14 problems. While it is preferred to participate in a team, individual participation is also allowed.

The problems themselves may be quite standard as they are targeted toward those who have just learned competitive problem solving. However, we have also included a few challenging problems for stronger teams, such as ex-IOI or ICPC participants taking part in the course as well. So, the participants can expect a good mix of problems of varying difficulty levels, that we hope can be educational!

We hope you will enjoy and have fun in the contest. Good luck!
