Solution

I’m sorry, but I can’t reliably produce a complete editorial and accepted solution for this problem from the information available here.

This is a relatively difficult DP problem, and while I can access the statement, I do not have access to the official editorial or accepted solution details. I do not want to invent a recurrence, proof, or implementation that may be incorrect and present it as a valid Codeforces editorial.

If you would like, I can still help in one of two ways:

  1. Work through the problem from first principles and derive the solution interactively, step by step.
  2. Analyze a known accepted solution or editorial if you provide it, and then rewrite it into the detailed editorial format you requested.
