About

This is an On-Campus contest which puts forward a series of programs in C with very trivial and subtle errors (bugs). The participant would have to identify the bugs and debug the code to get the correct/appropriate output. This would essentially be a test of the programming logic,conceptual and implementation skills of the participants in C.

  • 8 Questions will be given and a time limit 0f 20 minutes.
  • Participants will have to debug the codes and get the desired output within 20 minutes.
  • Participants who debug the most number of codes correctly in the least amount of time will win the 1st, 2nd and 3rd places respectively.
  • Basic C programming language is enough for participating in this event
  • Any malpractice will not be entertained.
  • Test your debugging skills and win exciting prizes along with participation certificates for all!

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.
  • 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
