British Informatics Olympiad and the International Olympiad of Informatics

[niemiro]

Anyone competing in the British Informatics Olympiad and/or the International Olympiad of Informatics?

It is a programming competition for students. Anyone interested should have a look at the Past Papers.

Computing Problems from the BIO and elsewhere

On the left hand side are the proper past papers for the actual competition. The middle column contains little coding snacks, and these are often more interesting, in my opinion.

Use this for programming snack ideas, or to practice for the actual competition.

Round ONE of the competition runs from November 22nd - December 24th.

So, if you are a programmer of suitable ability, and you are a student, talk to your educational establishment now!

I am taking part, and so should you!

Have just done the first program of the 2010 past paper, under exam conditions, and in less than 1 hour. Happy! Now for the written paper for question one, and then the harder questions 2 and 3!
