Event Overview

Participants compete in teams of two and progress through a preliminary screening followed by an intensive multi-round main event. Each stage is designed to assess different dimensions of technical competence.

Round Structure

Preliminary Round

An MCQ-based assessment covering Programming Fundamentals and Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA).

  • Top-scoring teams will qualify for the Main Rounds.

Main Rounds

The main event consists of four sub-rounds:

1) Coding Round

  • Five programming problems of varying difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, Hard).
  • Evaluation focuses on logic, efficiency, and correctness.

2) Fill the Algorithm

  • Teams analyze and correct incomplete algorithms.
  • Tests understanding of algorithmic flow and optimization.

3) Rapid Fire

  • A quick-response technical round aimed at testing fundamental knowledge and presence of mind.

4) ReelsRiddle

  • A visual interpretation round where participants identify programming concepts based on short video clips.

Evaluation Criteria

  • Correctness of solutions and number of problems solved
  • Time taken to arrive at the solution
  • Quality of logic and optimisation (time & space)
  • Debugging skills and ability to handle edge cases
  • Team coordination and strategy

Rules & Guidelines

  • Each team must consist of exactly two members.
  • Only the permitted languages and compilers in the lab may be used.
  • Internet access and external code templates are strictly not allowed.
  • Use of AI coding assistants is not permitted unless explicitly allowed by organisers.
  • Any malpractice will result in immediate disqualification.
  • Organisers and judges reserve the right to modify problems or scoring if required.

Prizes

  • 1st Prize: ₹3000
  • 2nd Prize: ₹2000
  • 3rd Prize: ₹1000
