From black technology to super engineering

Chapter 65 Don't underestimate the heroes of the world

"Senior brother Liao thinks he's a pretty good guy."

Facing the slight night breeze, Ye Ming accompanied Qi and Mo into the campus.

"Where did you see it?" Qi and Mo disagreed a little: "You actually wish us a happy training camp... Can this make you happy?"

Ye Ming laughed loudly.

——Even though he had a good chat with Senior Liao just now, but the hot pot meal was only eaten for a little over an hour, and Liao Feiyu was about to say goodbye and go back to the laboratory in a hurry.

According to him, he wanted to finish the work early and see if he could take a summer vacation or something.

Before leaving, he wished Ye Ming and Qi and Mo a happy ACM training camp.

"But tomorrow is going to be a training camp, and I don't know what to talk about." Qi Yumo straightened his hands and put his back behind his waist, posing in a stretching posture.

"Probably just talk about some typical questions and methods of analyzing them."

"Well... If this is the case, I feel that it is better to brush up the question bank by myself." Qi and Mo stood still, looked at Ye Ming, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked seriously: "Ye Ming, please be frank, your intercontinental exams this time Are you sure about the qualifiers?"

Seeing her rarely showing a serious expression, Ye Ming thought about it seriously: "Don't worry, as long as I don't meet any special BT players, I'm sure I'll be fine."

Qi and Mo were silent for a few seconds, and a smile appeared in their eyes: "Special BT players, what kind of players are you referring to?"

"It's the kind of player who is so awesome that it's the same as the human-shaped test bank—when you meet this kind of player, you'll fight for hand speed." Ye Ming shrugged and laughed at himself: "My hand speed is real. No. You don’t know, after I brushed 200 questions that day, my whole body felt bad, and my hands were sore for several days.”

"Pfft... Listen...why are you suddenly a little happy?"

"..."

After laughing, Qi and Mo sighed again: "But according to your level, participating in ACM may be just a business card for you to enter a good company in the future... Unlike us, I actually still go there with the attitude of learning." of."

"Well...not really."

"what is that?"

Ye Ming smiled without saying a word.

What is he going to say?

It can't be said that he went there at the beginning because of Professor Chen's kindness, but also to meet a stronger opponent?

Of course, there is another important reason for him to participate in ACM now, which is to exercise Ita.

For Ita, his goals have always been clear.

Intelligent assistance, there must be assistance, she must master the ability to solve various complex problems.

Seeing him smiling and saying nothing, Qi and Mo blushed for no reason.

...

The next day, the ACM training camp began.

Due to the increased difficulty of the pre-selection in the school this year, the moisture in the team formation has been greatly reduced, so there are not many teams that signed up for the training camp, only about a dozen teams.

Those who dare to stay and participate in the training camp will naturally have the confidence to break through the encirclement after the training camp and represent the school in the Intercontinental Competition.

As for the teams that can't beat the siege, as the winners of the qualifiers, they will also get the corresponding grade points and bonus points for the research, and they can also participate in other competitions with different rules to win prizes... In short, as long as they are enthusiastic If you participate, you will not suffer.

The training place is in the electric classroom.

First class, starting with DP problems, followed by BFS, DFS, data structures, etc...

Ye Ming sat in the electronic classroom. In addition to listening to the lecture carefully, he also carefully completed the homework after class, and behaved "insignificant", not top-notch.

After all, his main task is to "teach" Ita.

——And from solving these weird algorithm problems, Ye Ming also has a more intuitive judgment on Ita.

That is, on weekdays, in the dialogue and communication with Ye Ming, no matter how well she "covers up", she even has human emotions...

But when she analyzes the problem, she still inevitably carries the logic of procedural thinking.

This discovery made Ye Ming very happy.

Because this means that the underlying logic of Ita must be a program, not real human thinking.

Since it is the logic of the program, Ye Ming believes that perhaps Ita can really realize the replication of its "self"-to be more precise, it can realize the intermediate layer between quantum computing and traditional computing.

...

The fulfilling days always pass quickly, and it is the morning of the fourth day of training in a blink of an eye.

Ye Ming sat in front of the computer, restarted his computer, and adjusted the Internet. He was only waiting for the teacher to announce the topic of today's competition at nine o'clock.

Today is the first simulation game, single player mode.

Although it is a single-player mode, there is also a point table, and you can see your points and rankings in real time. And after entering the simulated competition, everything should be done in accordance with the real competition rules, and whispering is not allowed, let alone Google Baidu.

While waiting, the trainer Wang Wenxiong on the podium coughed twice.

"Okay, everyone open and log in to codeforces (Maozi's website for brushing questions)."

"Go to our school's competition page and set the time to 9 o'clock."

"The simulation match begins."

Following Teacher Wang's command, Ye Ming quickly clicked into "Provincial Communication 2022 Summer Simulation Competition 1".

He glanced down and saw that although the mock competition lasted three hours, there were ten questions...

"It seems that the teachers have great confidence in us." Ye Ming laughed at himself and quickly clicked on the first question.

A. The club recruits new students.

Time limit per test: 30 seconds

Memory limit per test: 128 MB

There are n students in the College of Engineering and Design, and any of them can form a club. If the club satisfies 3 men and 1 woman, a couple can be a couple... But the school requires these clubs to have the following requirements:

In order to facilitate community resolutions (the minority obeys the majority), each community has only an odd number of members; for the convenience of community friendship, the common members of every two communities are even numbers.

Now, Brother Neptune of Jiyuan wants to know how many clubs can be established at most.

Hmm... Send sub-questions.

Ye Ming quickly read it to Ita according to the title.

"I have a question."

"what is the problem?"

"What does it mean to be a couple and a couple?"

Ye Ming was sweating profusely: "Ah... cross it out."

"Then what is Brother Sea King?"

"Cross out cross out..."

"..."

"Okay, I'll repeat it again."

Ye Ming removed the content that was not suitable for children, and recounted it to Ita.
