Individual skill
soda-writing-style
Use when writing or revising a SODA (ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms) paper — headline bounds stated exactly, the title-page abstract that wins bidding, a first-ten-pages overview for triage readers, prior-bound comparison tables, and prose discipline for an uncapped full-version document.

# SODA Writing Style
SODA prose serves two readers with opposite budgets: a PC member triaging a
record-size pool who gives you minutes, and a subreviewer in your exact niche who
gives you days. The uncapped format (no page limit, full version encouraged —
2027 CFP, checked 2026-07-08) means you never trade completeness for space; the
craft is entirely in *layering*, so the minutes-reader and the days-reader each
get a document built for them.
## The headline bound
An algorithms paper is quoted by its bound, so engineer the quotable sentence:
- State it with exact parameters: "a deterministic `O(m log^2 n)`-time algorithm
