Programming contests

KTH has held regular programming contest training since 2000. The difficulty level is set to best help our bachelor students grow their skills and prepare for international contests. In addition to trainings we hold several larger contests a year, including sites for NCPC and Google Hashcode, some of the gymnasium level Programmeringsolympiaden finals and regional BOI, and our very own KTH Challenge. We send our students to NWERC and sometimes to ICPC.

Trainings are open and everyone is welcome (including gymnasieelever!). The problems range widely in difficulty, so there's always something easier to try out if you're new.

There are several places to look for info about contests, with a lot of the same information:
