Hi all, I hope you have had a great summer and had a lot of time to practice for this seasons programming contests! The Danish Championships in programming will be held on the 6th of October. As last year Netcompany will sponsor the event, and there will be food and soda during the contest as well as snacks. After the competition we will go through the problem set while eating pizza and drinking beer/soda (which is also graciously sponsored by Netcompany!) To prepare for this wondrous event there will be some practice sessions. The sessions will take place on mondays between 14.30 and 17.30 where we can hopefully use one of the three rooms Stibitz (117 seems to be available). The first practice session will be on the 10th of September. The practice sessions will continue until the championships and perhaps longer if you are interested :-) Winning the championships will give your team a ticket to NWERC, usually the university will send two teams for this event which is in the Netherlands in November this year. To determine who gets to go, there will be a qualification round where people compete on their own. The qualification is held the saturday before the Danish Championships. More information on this will follow in the coming weeks. We can however already say that three of the six people that were sent last year are now too old to compete, so there is definitely a good chance to qualify yourself!
