The date for the local contest with A&T, UNCG, Elon, GTCC, etc has not been announced, it should be sometime after March. Also, we will have an on-line mini contest with Elon early in the semester. If there is some interest, we can look into IEEE contest.

• Any one can participate.
• We itypically have room for 12 students, 4 teams.
• The teams have not been selected.
• Contest is shorter, approximately 3 hrs instead of the 5 hrs at the ACM contest.
• Historically, the A&T contest is not as difficult as the ACM. Most seasoned teams will solve at least two problems.
• Any problem, not previously solved from the International Web site is a valid problem. Report solutions to Mr. Shore. We will maintain the solved problem list below.
• A contest site that maintains a problem set from past ACM ACM-ACPC Live Archive. Goto the North America - Mid Atlantic region. You will need an account here as well.
• Here is another programming contest practice site. Log-on and try out Problem #1.
