During four hours, they had to solve as many programming problems as they could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three student teams from the <a href=\"https:\/\/wwwfr.uni.lu\/formations\/fstm\/bachelor_in_computer_science\" target=\"_self\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Bachelor in Computer Science<\/a> at the University of Luxembourg took part in the competition. They share this wonderful experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1) What was the competition about?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe contest brought together teams from universities across Benelux to compete against one another. We had to find solutions for twelve problems by using concepts from computer science, mathematics and general problem solving. This competition is a great way to improve one\u2019s programming abilities as well as being a fun and competitive environment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;Team Fork Bombers&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--contain\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/07\/fork_bombers.png\"\n                    style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: contain; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: contain; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"pavel-chernakov-zofia-milczarek-sena-kilinc\"\n    >\nPavel Chernakov, Zofia Milczarek, Sena Kilinc<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2) What did you do during the competition?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe competition required us to solve problems with algorithms coded in any programming language that we want. The problems were all very different, going from solving math problems to path finding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each team was only given one computer, therefore only one person could be coding at any time. Our goal was to always have someone on the computer working on implementing an idea, while the other two would be working on paper to come up with solutions for other problems. It was very much a team effort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Team Fonkey-Monkey&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--contain\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/07\/funkey_monkey.png\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/06\/image_67239425-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/06\/image_67239425-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/06\/image_67239425-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/06\/image_67239425-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/06\/image_67239425-scaled.jpg 1920w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: contain; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: contain; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure>\n\n\n<p><strong>Julien Kuehn, Titouan Guerin, Umut Ucak<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3) What did you like the most?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCompeting against other students was very fun since it gave us motivation to do better than them, even though it was our first ever competition and it was very hard. In addition, we realised that being together in person has unquantifiable benefits, such as noticing an interesting part of a teammates workflow and introducing it into your own.
