Hello,

i don't understand the meaning of this sentence : "Choose two
permutations such that the scalar product of your two new vectors is
the smallest possible, and output that minimum scalar product. "

Why two???

It has lead me into a different reflexion and coding that i should
have.

I don't understand why there was no question about this during the
contest.

Or maybe that's a misanderstanding from me, that's why i post to know
if i'm the only one who find it strange.

Thanks.
