Checklist ONIA 2026 Team Selection Camp (Extended Squad) – Test 1 · Task 2

The Legend of Algorel

Romanian title: Legenda lui Algorel

Assign each Codeforces problem statement to its main algorithmic category: dp, geometry, graphs, number theory or strings.

  • NLP
  • Text classification
  • Romanian original

The task

A student's teacher asks him to recognise the essence of algorithmic problems rather than solve them. The contestant receives problems.csv, a selection of Codeforces problems with id, title, description, statement, input and output format, examples, time and memory limits and rating.

For each problem the contestant must output one main category from dp, geometry, graphs, number theory and strings; ambiguous problems were labelled by experienced problem setters. The statement does not describe any labelled training split.

Abridged and translated by SOTA from the official Romanian materials. The official statement has the exact rules, and it wins wherever this summary differs.

At a glance

You get
problems.csv (598 problems, 10 columns; 1,610,612 bytes).
You submit
