*I hate it when it comes to a theorem or lemma that I have no idea about it (and can't invent it in the contest time!!)
I was able to solve the D in last year's Round-3 ... it was (for me) a simple breadth-first search tree and the point is to get a good structure-implementation of the graph and find a good heuristic-function ... so: Structure: is a good programming skills Heuristic Function: is a good math/iq skills But this African's C is an EXTRA math studies required ... But have to say that I really enjoyed the contest anyway, it was fun and challenge that I liked and like to compete again and again ... and I better get more prepared next time :) And waaw Egypt and South-Africa are the top most competes ... viva Egypt :D ... I invite all the egyptians here to join the Cairo-GTUG: http://Cairo.GTUGs.org ...
