Description<\/h2>\n

During the course, you\u2019ll learn everything needed to participate in real competitions \u2014 that\u2019s the main goal. Along the way you\u2019ll also gain useful skills for which competitive programmers are so highly valued by employers: ability to write efficient, reliable, and compact code, manage your time well when it\u2019s limited, apply basic algorithmic ideas to real problems, etc.<\/p>\n

We start from the very beginning by teaching you what competitions there are, what are their rules, what specifics problems have, how to read problem statements, how to organize your work, and what you should and shouldn\u2019t do. So it\u2019s fine if you\u2019ve never taken part in programming competitions before.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll focus on skills essential to competitive programming: inventing solutions and proving their correctness, estimating their running time, testing and debugging programs, how to benefit from structuring code. We\u2019ll also cover basic algorithmic ideas: brute force search, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, segment trees.<\/p>\n

On competitions, there are a lot of specific pitfalls, perilous to beginners \u2014 but that\u2019s not to worry, as we\u2019ll go through the most common of them: integer overflow and issues with fractional numbers, troubles of particular programming languages, how to get unstuck in general.<\/p>\n

And, you\u2019ll hone all these skills by solving practice problems, which are just like problems on real competitions. You could use any of the following programming languages: C, C++, C#, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, Python 2, Python 3, Ruby, Rust, Scala. We assume that you already know how to write simplest programs in one of these.<\/p>\n
