2017 Hua-Lien Regional Rules

The Problem Set

There will be 6 to 13 problems to be solved in 5 hours. The description of each problem is in English. It is guaranteed that all the problems can be solved by any of the C, C++ and JAVA languages; however, Python is not included.

本次競賽將有六至十三道賽題，比賽時間為五小時。題目敘述均為英文。所有的題目皆保證可由 C、C++、Java 所撰寫的程式解出，但並不保證所有題目均可以 Python 答對。

Judge System

The contest system will be PC2 9.4.1. Compilations and executions will be done in IOI isolate sandbox and in identical environments (both software and hardware) of the team workstations.
本次競賽使用 PC2 9.4.1 並且所有編譯與執行均在 IOI isolate 沙盒中，以與隊伍開發機相同的軟硬體環境下進行。

Submissions

Teams must submit their solutions via PC2. Each submission will be given a run ID and a timestamp of its submission time. It is guaranteed that a submission with greater run ID is submitted later. The judge system will only response to submissions that is submitted within the contest duration (normally 300 minutes).

The response to each run must be one of the following:

  1. Yes: The judge accepts your code
  2. No - Compilation Error: Your code cannot be successfully compiled in the sandbox.
  3. No - Time-Limit Exceeded: Your program consumes too much time.
  4. No - Runtime Error: Your program terminates with an non-zero return code, which often means your program is terminated by the operating system.
  5. No - Wrong Answer: The judge rejects the output of your program.
  6. No - Other - Contact Staff: There is something wrong with the judge system. The submission will be manually rejudged, and new response will be sent later.

隊伍必須透過 PC2 系統提交解答。每次提交均有 Run ID 以及提交時間的時間戳記。 PC2 保證較晚提交的解答有較大的 Run ID。裁判系統僅回應競賽時間內的提交(通常為300分鐘)。

提交所獲得的回應為下列之一：

  1. Yes: 裁判接受提交的程式碼。
  2. No - Compilation Error: 程式碼無法在沙盒中成功編譯。
  3. No - Time-Limit Exceeded: 提交的程式太過耗時。
  4. No - Runtime Error: 提交的程式結束時的 return code 不為零，通常是因為程式因權限錯誤遭作業系統終結。
  5. No - Wrong Answer: 裁判拒絕接受提交的程式碼，因輸出不正確。
  6. No - Other - Contact Staff: 裁判系統出了問題，將會手動重批改這份程式碼，稍後將新結果傳回。
Scoring and Ranking

Teams are ranked according to the most problems solved. Teams who solve the same number of problems are ranked by least total time. The total time is the sum of the time consumed for each problem solved. The time consumed for a solved problem is the time elapsed from the beginning of the contest to the submittal of the accepted run plus 20 penalty minutes for every rejected run (including Compilation Error, Time-Limit Exceeded, Runtime Error and Wrong Answer) for that problem regardless of submittal time. There is no time consumed for a problem that is not solved. If two teams have the same number of problem solved and penalty, then the winner goes to the team of the less run ID of their last accepted submission.

隊伍以解題數量多者排名較前，解題數量相同時，以總消耗時間少者排名較前。答對的題目的消耗時間計算方式為比賽開始至解出題目所消耗的分鐘數。如解出前有答錯，每答錯一次需要另加20 分鐘。總消耗時間為所有答對題目的消耗時間加總。未答對的題目不計消耗時間。如兩隊解題數與耗時相同，則以最後答對題目的 run ID 小者為勝。

Fair Competition

The regional contest director may disqualify a team for any cheating, attempting to cheat or jeopardizing the contest (including distracting behavior, damaging the hardware, unplugging the wires, cracking the contest system, etc).

區域賽主席可因作弊、意圖作弊、以及妨礙競賽(如過於吵鬧令他人分心、破壞硬體設備、拔線、入侵競賽系統妨礙正常運作等等)剝奪隊伍參賽權力。
