ICFPC 2013 Coming Soon

    About ICFPC there were already articles on a habr, for example about ICFPC 2009 . Well, I’ll just supplement it with the following years and in the meantime I will say that ICFPC 2013 is already close (this Friday). This year, Microsoft is sponsored by research.microsoft.com/en-us/events/icfpcontest2013 .
    Generally, usually all ICFPC created a page icfpcontest.org , but it's the Microsoft, they all in a special way. Although who knows, maybe tomorrow they will change.


    2009 - we manage satellites, we go out to the necessary orbits, we are joined with each other.
    2010 - everything was described as the production of cars and fuel for them, but, in the end, it all came down to programming circuits on ternary logic.
    2011 - create a bot for playing Lambda the Gathering (referring to Magic the Gathering). This is a strategic game (card) with elements of functional programming.
    2012 - create a bot for playing Boulder Dash. We collect diamonds (called lambdas) and dodge the stones.
    2013 - ??? Microsoft said that it will be necessary to generate other programs from the program, but what exactly needs to be done we will learn only the day after tomorrow.

    Who will participate - good luck. Who is not - be sick and watch the results.
