Proggy-Buggy Contest 2022

Don’t Panic! DataArt invites you to participate in the International Programming Proggy-Buggy Contest.

 How many problems? There are only 13 problems that need to be solved in 42 minutes. Why 42? Because it is the answer to “the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything” given by a supercomputer in “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” And we tend to trust him.

What is the solution? We remind you that the solution to any problem is a console application, the source text of which must be sent to the verification server by selecting a programming language from the drop-down list (available programming languages: C, C++, Free Pascal, Java, Mono C#, Python, Ruby, PHP, JavaScript).

 Who can participate? Pupils, students, developers, testers, and all the people with programming skills and understanding of "console application" and "standard input/output streams."

Participants residing on the territory of the Russian Federation are not allowed to participate in the Contest.

This year, we have four types of participants:

— Pupils (participants, 16+ years old, attending school, lyceum, or other institution that provides secondary education, with the rank on Codeforces ≤ 1399)

— Amateurs (participants with no previous experience in any programming competitions or with a rank on Codeforces ≤ 1599).

— Professionals (participants with previous experience in the National Student (ACM ICPC) or School (IOI) Olympiad in programming or other programming competitions with the rank on Codeforces ≥ 1600).

— Superheroes (participants with previous experience in the National Student (ACM ICPC) or School (IOI) Olympiad in programming or other programming competitions with the rank on Codeforces ≥ 2400).
