About

This is the set of sample problems for the high school portion of the Riverside County Programming Competition. They should be used as practice and preparation for the contest which will be held in the Spring. The problems are roughly presented in an order which is ascending in difficulty, though this is not an absolute indicator. Be aware that point value is a better indicator of the expected difficulty for each problem.

It is our hope that all students will have some success as well as be challenged by this set. We look forward to your participation in our competition.

Prizes

There are no prizes for this sample set, however, there will be prizes at the actual competition.

Scoring

  • This practice set is not considered an official part of the contest. These scoring rules relate to the competition itself and are given here for your information as you prepare. - 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.
  • 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.
  • 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
