Contests

Coding contests

Solve a set of problems against the clock. The judge checks every submission against hidden tests, the clock is the server's, and standings follow ICPC rules: most problems solved, then least penalty time.

How scoring works

  • Rank by problems solved. Ties are broken by penalty minutes, then by the time of your last accepted solution.
  • Penalty for a solved problem: minutes from the start to your first accepted submission, plus a fixed penalty for each wrong answer, runtime error or time limit before it. Compile errors cost nothing.
  • Submission time is recorded by the server when your code arrives, not when judging finishes.
  • After a contest ends you can still solve its problems (not ranked), or start a virtual run with the same timer.
