Chapter 65 Forget it, give it to me next year

Professor Zhang Ke was smiling from beginning to end, so he didn't intend to make any comments.

During this period of time, he has to pay attention to the games in other divisions and lead the team. The professor is actually a little tired.

After all, it's a last resort for people in middle age. Add goji berries to the thermos cup. Goji berries are irresistible to remind you of the years, so add some angelica to the cup. ' of age.

The thermos cup is basically in your hand, so you should be a Buddhist coach.

After walking out of Xida, Su Xiaomu said.

"The scene is a bit chaotic, and the warm-up match is not the standard of the official match. Let's not join in the fun, recharge your batteries and work hard tomorrow."

Being reminded by Su Hol every day, Su Xiaomu's eyesight has improved to a certain extent.

Judging from the situation at the scene just now, the warm-up match is estimated to be a pot of porridge——

When Su Xiaomu slid his fingers across the keyboard, he felt that the feedback was not very sensitive, and he didn't put a mouse pad or anything.

If it wasn't for being handsome, I couldn't find volunteers to help. The mess on the scene was because the distinction between volunteers and contestants was not clear.

Xiaomengxin Su Xiaomu, who was finally able to take a long trip, felt that Nanning was actually from Antarctica, and the uniforms arranged by Xida really wanted to freeze people into dogs.

It's a good thing to be prepared!

In summary, it is better not to join in the excitement, lest anger affect tomorrow's performance.

Zhang Ke, who was following behind the three of them, nodded in satisfaction. This student was indeed on the right track. He was not the nerdy type, with outstanding eyesight!

"Xiaomu-san is right. There are probably related topics being complained about online right now."

Shang Siyu and Chen Jiming nodded quickly. To be honest, they were overwhelmed by Su Xiaomu's excellence after forming a team, so they didn't think about anything else.

Sure enough, after returning to the hotel, I heard the news from some news notification groups.

The participating teams had a small conflict with the volunteers because of various messes; the printing was slow, the balloons were misplaced, and the mess was like a car accident scene. ①
In fact, it is hard to imagine that a university would be so busy hosting such a competition...

Shang Siyu and Chen Jiming were once again amazed by Su Xiaomu's unique eyesight.

Su Xiaomu thought for a while and said.

"I don't think there will be much improvement in tomorrow's official match, and then don't worry about the balloon issue, and focus on printing.

As for whether the situation of the China University of Petroleum will reappear in the competition questions, I don’t think there is too much to worry about. It doesn’t matter whether the person who wrote the question is a Doc teacher or something like Doc, it won’t be a routine that will be used all the time. "

In fact, Su Xiaomu wanted to say that this Doc should be a bit of a loser. He made the worst of the two competitions in the Qingdao competition area, and his face was not bright.

Some basic rules of the regional competition and finals of the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest are basically the same.

For example, any team will get a balloon for every question that is answered correctly, and the team that answers the first question correctly will also get an additional "FIRST PROBLEM SOLVED" starting balloon.

And: the list is updated in real time for the first four hours, and the list is closed in the last hour, and the ranking is only made public after the awards are presented.

In addition: during the period, if the result of each submitted operation is judged to be wrong, a 20-minute penalty will be added, and the test questions that have not been answered or have not been answered correctly will not be timed.

The working language of the competition is American English, and all written materials including test questions are written in American English. The programming languages ​​that can be used in the competition are:

Java, C, C++, Kotlin and Python.

No Golang.

The ranking rule is: the more problems solved, the higher the ranking. If the number of solved problems is the same, the ranking will be based on the length of the total time spent.

The total time is the sum of the time spent on each solved problem. The time taken for a solved problem is the time from the start of the competition to the acceptance of the submission plus the penalty time for that problem.

In other words, when teams A and B answer the questions, team A answers 6 questions correctly, and team B answers 5 questions correctly. At this time, no matter how much penalty time is added, as long as it is completed within the five hours stipulated in the competition, team A will win.

When both teams A and B complete 5 questions correctly, the team with the shortest total time wins. ②
In addition, regional competitions generally award gold, silver and bronze awards in proportions of 10%, 20% and 30% respectively.

In general (120 teams), 12 teams will win gold medals, 24 teams will win silver medals, 36 teams will win bronze medals, and the rest will be honorable mentions.

Teams with a silver medal or above are eligible to participate in this year's Asian regional finals hosted by Shanghai University, and 18 places for the finals in the eastern Asian region will be determined. In principle, only one team from each university is allowed to advance.

Some teams will participate in multiple regional competitions, but Su Xiaomu has no plans to go to Urumqi Xinda University or Hong Kong.

Still the same sentence, he promised Su Ho in his heart that if there is no one who can fight, there must be no one who can fight!

…………

On November 11th, at seven in the morning, Su Xiaomu, Shang Siyu, Chen Jiming and Professor Zhang Ke gathered in the restaurant of the hotel. After breakfast together, they headed to Xida University.

In comparison, the Sao Ke team, which is basically living in the west gate, is relatively happy.

There is no need to get up early in the morning to pack up and take a taxi or something to rush here.

Before 07:30, Su Xiaomu and his team arrived at Xida Gymnasium.

Perhaps it was because yesterday’s reports, the opening ceremony, the oath, the warm-up match, including the referee’s return results, printing, balloons, etc. were all messed up, or maybe it was because the volunteers felt that their work was not done properly.

Therefore, before each team entered the gymnasium, they were warmly welcomed by the volunteers.

The clapping applause was full of warmth in the cold Antarctic.

Su Xiaomu was stunned.

This row of noodles is a bit high!

Su Xiaomu was slightly looking forward to the next competition process, but after that, the still messy scene gave him a slap in the face.

Get clothes!
Compared with yesterday's 'empty', today the entire venue is basically full of people, and the teams that did not participate in the warm-up match basically came.

After the hustle and bustle.

"The competition begins!" The voice resounded throughout the venue.

The atmosphere in the venue seemed to suddenly become tense.

However, in reality...

10 minutes before the start, the test questions were distributed to each team, and there were no envelopes.

And the computer's power-on password was listed in advance, which was different from yesterday's, so when the official start of the game was announced.

A bunch of teams had 0 minutes to lose on Question A, which was already a particularly bad question...

Next, a few words from the entire venue:
Why hasn't my print arrived yet!
Forget it, print it out and give it to me next year...

No more balloons...

①: Slow printing: Printing codes and the like are delivered slowly during the competition. It is a shared printer: Generally, if there is a wrong answer (WA) or the like, everyone will print the code and correct the error. There is only one computer, and the time will be tight.

②：例如：A、B两队都正确完成两道题目，其中A队提交这两题的时间分别是比赛开始后1:00和2:45，B队为1:20和2:00，但B队有一题提交了2次。这样A队的总用时为1:00+2:45=3:45而B队为1:20+2:00+0:20=3:40，所以B队以总用时少而获胜。

Broken bowl.

There is a small bug in Chapter 57, which has been fixed.
