About

The HCPC17 Example Competition is a example of what the competition on April 28th 2018 will look like. Use this as a time to practice using HackerRank because we will be using this on the big day. We have an example Div 1 (AP CS-A Recommended) and Div 2 (No AP CS) problems for you to try. These were from the 2016 competition and will be similar in style to this year's problems. If you have any problems with the system or the HCPC, contact ryan-wedoff@uiowa.edu or visit our website: https://acm.org.uiowa.edu/hcpc

Scoring

  • Each challenge has a pre-determined score.
  • A participant’s score depends on the number of test cases a participant’s code submission successfully passes.
  • Incorrect solutions will be penalized in time of submission.
  • If a participant submits more than one solution per challenge, then the participant’s score will reflect the highest score achieved. In a game challenge, the participant's score will reflect the last code submission.
  • If a participant submits more than one solution per challenge, then the participant’s score will reflect the highest score achieved.
  • Participants are ranked by score. If two or more participants achieve the same score, then the tie is broken by the total time taken to submit the last solution resulting in a higher score
