import { Problem } from "../models";

export const metadata = {
  problems: {
    general: [
      new Problem("CSES", "Hamiltonian Flights", "1690", "Easy", false, ["Bitmasks"], ""),

    ],
  }
};

Has not been the solution to any platinum problem, but appeared in old gold and can be used for subtasks.
