About

Calling out all first timers and those new to competitive programming. RookieRank invites all levels of programmers who have never participated in a rated algorithms competition before to experience the thrill! RookieRank begins Friday, February 10, at 9am PST. Rookies will have 48 hours (until February 12 at 9am PST) to solve 5 algorithm challenges. We will have two leaderboards. One for all first time competitve programmers. These are users who are not listed on the Algorithms Leaderboard. We will have a separate leaderboard for all rated users. These are users who have participated in a rated algorithms contest before.

Prizes

Top 3 coders ranked on the leaderboard win a Champion T-Shirt. We will also reward 10 coders picked at random from the top 200 on the leaderboard with a Champion T-Shirt. You must be a rookie to be eligible to win a T-Shirt

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.
  • 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 for submitting the last correct code submission.
