About the Event
CODEWARZ is a team-based competitive programming competition designed to test participants' programming skills, algorithmic thinking, data structures knowledge, debugging ability, logical reasoning, and technical awareness.
The event is conducted in two stages – Prelims and Mains. The Prelims serves as the screening stage, where teams compete in a technical quiz covering programming, data structures, algorithms, and computer science fundamentals. The top-performing teams advance to the Mains.
The Mains presents teams with a series of technical challenges including coding problems, algorithm completion, visual technical riddles, and rapid-fire questions. Each challenge is designed to test a different aspect of programming and problem-solving, requiring participants to demonstrate accuracy, speed, analytical thinking, and technical knowledge.
The event will use the NEXAA Assessments platform and interactive event setup wherever applicable, allowing teams to access challenges, submit answers, participate in interactive rounds, and have their scores evaluated efficiently.
