The Canadian Computing Competition

Jennifer Liu (9) STAFF REPORTER

On Wednesday, February 20, 2019,  over sixty St. Robert students wrote the Canadian Computing Competition (CCC) after school. Taking place from 3 to 6 pm, the students writing the junior contest were in room 119, while the senior division was held in the library.

CCC is an annual programming contest for secondary school students hosted by the Center for Education and Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. Although a working knowledge of coding techniques is needed to write the contest, the questions themselves are algorithmic in nature and rely heavily on the contestant’s ability to find time and memory efficient solutions to earn full marks.

When I attended the coding club meeting held that Friday to discuss answers, the general consensus seemed to be that many of the questions were designed to be almost impossible to solve.  When I asked Marcus Tuen Muk (11), he agreed to say, “It was a challenging competition”.

Even if you don’t consider yourself ‘good’ at coding, you can still learn something from taking part in the contest. A large part of the event is simply gathering together with people with similar interests and learning from each other.
