Muhammad Farhan, an active contributor to the Bits and Bytes forum, brought this to our attention: Google Code Jam - If you know young Pakistani programmers that are good at troubleshooting and solving technical challenges, then Code Jam is for you - pass the word around.. We’re trying to get the word out to as many participants from Pakistan as possible!
Google Code Jam is a coding competition in which professional and student programmers are asked to solve complex algorithmic challenges in a limited amount of time. The contest is all-inclusive: Google Code Jam lets you program in the coding language and development environment of your choice.
Google Code Jam begins in July and continues in August, when you will compete in online rounds against contestants from around the world. The Top 500 participants will advance to onsite competitions at a local Google office to compete against those in their region (Asia Pacific; Europe, Middle East and Africa; and the Americas). The Top 100 will participate in the final round at the Google Headquarters in Mountain View, California on Friday, November 14.
Don’t be left out! Make sure to register between June 17 and July 17, and show your coding creativity in Google Code Jam.
