Since this contest is used as a qualification round for a local event, the style of problems is modified a bit. - Up to task C is usual. - (the style of tasks D-Ex in this contest) is between (the style of tasks D-Ex in usual ABC) and (the style of earlier tasks in usual ARC). - Tasks in the middle of this contest are slightly harder than usual. Later tasks are not too difficult. We are looking forward to your participation!
