Competitive Programming

Event Description Compete in a timed competitive programming challenge by solving a set of algorithmic problems of increasing difficulty. Submissions are evaluated automatically for correctness, and the leaderboard is ranked based on problems solved and total time, including penalties for incorrect submissions. Problems will cover arrays, strings, sorting, greedy algorithms, graphs, and dynamic programming. Guidelines Eligibility: Open to students from any college. Participation Format: Individual participation only. Team participation is not permitted. College ID: Participants must carry a valid college ID card for verification. Programming Languages: C, C++, Java, and Python are supported on the judging platform. Problem Statements: Participants will solve algorithmic problems of varying difficulty, covering arrays, strings, sorting, greedy algorithms, graphs, and dynamic programming. Duration: The contest will run for a fixed duration announced by the organizers. Evaluation: All submissions will be judged automatically on predefined test cases. Leaderboard: Rankings will be determined by the number of problems solved, followed by total time, including penalties for incorrect submissions. Requirements: Participants must bring their own laptop and charger. Rules Supported Languages: Only C, C++, Java, and Python are permitted for submissions. Scoring: Participants will be ranked by the number of problems solved. Ties will be broken using total time, including penalties for incorrect submissions. Fair Play: Collaboration, the use of AI assistants, and any form of outside help during the contest are strictly prohibited. Plagiarism: Copying solutions or submitting plagiarized code will result in disqualification. Independent Participation: Each participant must solve the problems independently and submit their own solutions. Submission Deadline: All solutions must be submitted within the allotted contest duration. Late submissions will not be accepted. Final Decisions: Decisions made by the organizers regarding judging, scoring, disputes, and disqualification will be final.
