Chapter 272 Rules
"What about language? Or both?" Sun Chao asked.

"There are five languages ​​that can be used in the competition, Java, C, C++, Kotlin and Python."

If all these types are acceptable, Sun Chao thinks there should be no problem.

Seeing that Sun Chao had nothing to ask, Fan Kexin continued: "During the competition, players can carry any non-electronic materials, including books and printed programs, etc. Some competition areas will restrict the paper materials that players can carry."

Sun Chao spoke again: "Partial competition areas? Which competition areas are some competition areas?"

Fan Kexin spread his hands directly: "I don't know either, we will investigate carefully later."

"Is this considered regional discrimination?" Huang Hao also answered.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's check it out later."

"I'm telling the super gods the brief rules."

Several people nodded together.

"ACM-ICPC participates in the form of teams representing each school, and each team consists of at most 3 members. Each member must be a student at the school, has a certain age limit, and can participate in a maximum of 2 regional selection competitions per year."

"During the competition, each team can only use one computer, and needs to use one of Java, C/C++, Java and Python to write programs to solve 1 to 5 problems within 7 hours."

"After the program is completed, submit it to the evaluation machine to run. The result of the operation will be judged as correct or wrong and the participating teams will be notified in time. What's more interesting is that after each team completes a question correctly, the organizer will raise a representative in its place. The national flag of its country, the first team to solve each problem will get an additional "FIRST PROBLEM SOLVED" competition flag."

"The event consists of two stages: the regional preliminaries on each continent and the global finals. The finals are scheduled to be held in June-July each year, while the regional preliminaries are generally scheduled to be held in November-December of the previous year."

Huang Hao came up with an idea in a hurry, and said: "Then you can form a few more teams, and there will be more people participating; then our chances of winning will be higher."

Wang Bin's eyes suddenly lit up: "Huh? That's right, Huang Hao's idea is fine."

"Is this okay?" Sun Chao looked at Fan Kexin.

"In principle, a university can have up to three teams in the preliminaries, but in the end only one team can participate in the global finals."

"That means that even if three teams from our university enter the finals, only one team can participate. Is that true?"

"Yes."

"..."

"Do you still have this? It's too unfair." Wang Bin complained first.

Sun Chao thinks this is fair. If there is no restriction on this, then if all the finalists are from one school, other schools or other countries will have no chance.

In fact, this rule is still very friendly to Huaxia. After all, Huaxia participated in this competition in the last few years. Sun Chao felt that without this rule, Huaxia would not know when it would win the championship.

Compared with the history of computer development in the original world, this world can be about five years ahead of schedule.

But even so, there is still a big gap between China's computer field and foreign countries.

"It's actually fair."

Fan Kexin quickly echoed: "I think what Chaoshen said is right, you only think about the three teams that your school will enter in case, have you ever thought about going to other countries to enter three teams at once? Do you still think it is unfair. "

A few people wanted to understand as soon as they heard it.

After discussing this topic, Fan Kexin continued: "The final winner is the team that correctly answers the most questions and spends the least amount of time."

"The time for each test question will be from the start of the competition until the answer to the test question is judged to be correct. During the period, if the result of each submission is judged to be wrong, a penalty of 20 minutes will be added, and the test questions that are not answered correctly will not be counted."

"Moreover, compared with other computer programming competitions (such as the International Olympiad in Informatics, IOI), the ACM-ICPC is characterized by a large amount of questions, and each team needs to complete 5 or more questions within 7 hours. In addition, a A team with 3 members but only 1 computer made the time even more tense. Therefore, in addition to solid professionalism, good teamwork and psychological quality are also the key to winning."

"No.1 in the global finals will receive a trophy."

"in addition."

"Teams with top results will also receive gold, silver and bronze medals. Teams with below-average number of solutions will be confirmed but not ranked."

Fan Kexin spread his hands, "I've said almost everything I know. If I think of something later, I'll tell you."

"By the way, Wang Bin, have you heard about this game before?" Fan Kexin looked at Wang Bin.

"I started to understand it when I was in school, but I just didn't expect to participate in this activity when I was a freshman."

Fan Kexin smiled like a fool, and said, "I didn't expect it either, but who made us super gods."

Sun Chao didn't want them to place too much hope, if they didn't get the ranking, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment; he said: "I don't even have much confidence, so don't have too much hope."

"As long as Super God says you can get No.1, I believe that you will definitely get No.1."

"Although I said that, as long as I can get the ranking, I will be very happy. After all, all the students participating in this event are juniors and seniors from various universities. I suspect that only our three freshmen will participate in this event. s student."

"It's okay, even if you don't get the ranking, it's just accumulating experience." Wang Bin's attitude is very good.

Huang Hao couldn't listen anymore, and encouraged the three of them: "You have given up on yourself here before you participated. You must have confidence in Chaoshen."

Gao Fan also encouraged them: "That's right, Chaoshen was reading computer science books when he started school. According to his memory, I doubt that the seniors in juniors and seniors don't have as much knowledge as Sun Chao."

"Don't forget, Sun Chao has read a lot of computer science books."

Wang Bin opened his mouth when he heard what they said. Although he knew that Chao Sun had a high memory and IQ, he did not expect Chao Chao to have time to study computer science after studying this major and minor courses.

In the past, Wang Bin worshiped Sun Chao, but now, he just looks up to him.

Although he thinks that his computer technology is very good, but Wang Bin never thinks that he can be better than Sun Chao.

When Wang Bin first heard that Sun Chao was going to participate in this competition, he just thought that relying on Sun Chao's IQ and memory, they should not be able to play in one round.

But now Wang Bin feels that the top three can be imagined.

"Okay, I'm about to be blown away by you. What I just said is true. I really don't know whether I can get a good ranking; after all, I don't know the other players yet."

"I will focus on this recently and strive to get a good ranking for our team; of course you should also work hard."

"no problem."

Fan Kexin volunteered and quickly raised his hand: "Leave the registration to me, and I will sign up in a while."
