Dear visitors of iddacup.org!

We are pleased to announce that the second round of the "IDDA CUP - Spring 2024" Olympiad took place simultaneously with the final rounds of the 46th and 47th ICPC (International Collegiate Programming Contest). Isn't it a very symbolic coincidence?

The results of both IDDA Cup rounds and the list of finalists were determined during the ICPC World Finals, when the jury was in Egypt.

In the 1st round of the "IDDA CUP - Spring 2024" Olympiad (March 31, 2024), 339 people participated, and in the 2nd round (April 13, 2024) - 162 people. According to the pre-announced decision of the organizing committee, the list of finalists was determined taking into account the maximum result of the participant in both rounds.

Let us remind you, the final result of the two rounds was calculated using a simple formula:

The final result of the two rounds is the maximum of the two results that you showed in the first round on March 31 and in the second round on April 13 (see formula below).

Final result = maximum {result of the 1st round, result of the 2nd round}

Example 1: Result of the 1st round - 500 points, result of the 2nd round - 0 points. Final result = 500.

Example 2: Result of the 1st round - 87 points, result of the 2nd round - 200 points. Final result = 200.

Example 3: Result of the 1st round - 0 points, result of the 2nd round - 250 points. Final result = 250.

Note:Participants who scored 200 or more points out of 500 in the final round qualify for the final.

It should be noted that, as previously announced by the organizing committee, the finalists of the Republican Olympiad in Informatics (RFO) directly advanced to the final stage of the "IDDA CUP - Spring 2024" competition.

The FINAL round of the "IDDA CUP - Spring 2024" Olympiad will take place in person on April 27, 2024, at designated venues in Baku.

Participants will be provided with additional information.

Good luck to all finalists!

Sincerely,

IDDA Cup Committee
