What is the mathematical background necessary for competitive programming?
That sounds challenging. Can you recommend any resources for learning these subjects?
Certainly! There are many online resources available for learning these subjects, such as Khan Academy, Coursera, and MIT OpenCourseWare. You can also find many books on these topics, such as "Concrete Mathematics" by Graham, Knuth, and Patashnik, or "Introduction to Algorithms" by Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, and Stein.
