I'm not a native English speaker and I had some trouble understanding that pun.

> So how do we do it? We are going to have to talk a bit about the representation of polynomials in computer memory first. (Haha get it?)

Without that hint I would have totally missed it.

Also, this could be a joke on the joke. Probably the author didn't really think this pun is funny, and made fun of themselves by overstating how funny that pun is. Humor is a large field with lots of varieties. (And no, I will not spoil that this is a maths pun.)

Can please somebody explain what the pun is supposed to be for us who definitely don't see anything except the normal sentence? That he used "talk a bit" in the sentence that announces consideration of how computer memory works? I'm really disappointed then.

Yes, it's this pun. I did not intend it as a pun, but then I read what I'd written and chuckled. I thought I myself would miss it when reading someone else's article (I'd read with less of a critical eye for form), so I made sure to mark it.

Thanks! Please do write about the task for which you had to use the presented solution. Is the expected input on which the problem is evaluated really like "100K of golf holes and 100K of possible robot distances"? I don't know anything about these contests and I was not able to find the input on which the program is going to be measured (if I understand the speed is measured?)
