The Department of Computer Science will be hosting a programming competition for teams of High School students on April 6, 2019 on the Trinity campus. To enter, contact mlewis@trinity.edu. We have 25 total slots. Each team can have up to three students. We have sponsorship from Valero, so we will have T-shirts and there will be no registration fee.
If you want to see how things are done for the competition, you can look at what we did on HackerRank last year.
You can see the original competition and standings at https://www.hackerrank.com/trinity-hspc-2018.
You can do all the problems from the competition at https://www.hackerrank.com/trinity-post-hspc-2018.
The competition will take place on the Trinity Campus in the Center for Science and Innovation (CSI) and Northrup Hall. Campus maps are available at https://new.trinity.edu/about-trinity/campus/campus-map. Both buildings are on the north central-northwest part of campus.
We will provide teams with a login to our lab machines under Linux. The competition will be done using HackerRank, so students can use any of the languages supported by HackerRank. We suggest that you have your students try out the HackerRank system before showing up to the competition. Our systems include compilers/interpreters for most languages as well as a number of IDEs and text editors that your students can use outside to write and test code before submitting to HackerRank.
