Our Goals
- To give interested students further opportunity to develop and test their programming skills to solve a variety of problems.
- To promote student interaction with faculty above and beyond that found in the classroom.
- To foster a communicative atmosphere enabling collaborative efforts between faculty and students.
- To prepare students for participation in annual programming contests such as the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ACM ICPC), International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI), and Topcoder Challenge.
The book on the left, Programming Challenges, is one of the
resources that we are consulting for problem ideas, but is not
our exclusive source. This book contains many examples, and also
discusses one online judge
that can be used on over 1000 problems, handling programs written
in C, C++, Java, and Pascal.
We plan to use Java when discussing
practical implementation of solutions to problems we consider. Also,
we're using the Online Judge
that is available at the Universidad de Valladolid, as it has a larger
problem set to choose from.
