Dropped out of round 2. Got 0 points. Wrote several programs but for some reason they all produced incorrect output. Feel very inadequate as a programmer now.

Great!! !
Congrats you stand the pace for a while!! !

Next time, you can train for a couple of weeks, very hard, before starting the contest!! !!
I tell you!! ! Training is very important, No training, it means you are going very cold into contest.
If you train then you get some advantage, for sure ! !
you did the best you could....

Congratulations!! !

It could be complicated, but tell me next year, if I get time, we can train together, I have some ideas, by example:
You make a plan, it depends on what they want for questions, you have to practise on questions/answers, hehehhe, very useful.
