Problems

In 3 hours

Each problem carries a point value.
Values increase as problems get more difficult.

The goal is to collect as many points as possible within the stipulated time (3 hours). At the end of the event, the team with more points is the winner!

The HP CodeWars judges might contact random teams to interview them and check the coding solutions.

Final classification will be validated by the HP CodeWars jury.

Specific Guidelines Competition Rules/Guidelines

The judges’ rulings are final.

All solutions must programmatically determine the results.

In other words, your solution cannot just print out a solution to a problem that you determined by hand.

The judges will be using some different data sets for your programs at the judging table. Your team will have several problems to choose. You might not be able to solve them all, so we recommend studying them and choose your problems wisely.

Go to overview

Each team will receive a unique team login and password for the competition.

The participant will have to set-up in the competition system using the provided username and password.

There is no limit to the number of submissions you can make to solve a given problem. However, note that in the case of a tie score, the winners will be determined by the fewest incorrect submissions.

Any necessary corrections to contest problems will be displayed to all competitors in the contest platform provided by HP.

It is advised the Team sponsors (teachers) help their students with the set up before the event, but once the competition starts leave the team by themselves.

Additional rules, modifications, and more details will be available to you in advanced the days before the event.

Kindly note that all the students must be punctual to setup their computers so that the contest begins on time.
