Hello , We are delighted to inform you that Codefest '11, the annual International online coding festival of Computer Engineering Society, IT-BHU , has been unveiled. CodeFest is a unique fest wherein concepts of mathematics, logic, artificial intelligence, algorithms, language syntax, etc. are required to be deployed in programming; these concepts manifest themselves in solving problems effectively and efficiently! CodeFest was started last year. CodeFest’10 was a phenomenal success with participation from all over the globe. CodeFest’11 is geared up with some new and pepped up events, while maintaining the integrity of its standards.
Here is a brief description of the constituent online events:
- Mathmania: A mathematical puzzle contest that puts mathematical and computational skills to test.
- Main Contest on Feb 27,10:00 pm
- Manthan: An algorithm intensive programming contest that would require coders to tailor existing standard algorithms.
- Main Contest on Mar 13,12:00 pm
- Perplexed: A programming contest, aimed to test the knowledge of C, wherein codes will be rewarded against syntactic constraints.
- Main Contest on Mar 11,12:00 pm
- Ratespiel: A technical contest covering different areas of Computer Science.
- Round 1A on Feb 12,10:00 pm
