We are pleased to announce that this summer Google Code Jam is resuming - a programming competition in which students and professionals compete in solving algorithmic problems for a while. Registration is already open and will last until July 17th. It's easy to get involved: Code Jam does not impose any restrictions on the programming language or development environment used. Solve tasks in the way that is most convenient for you.

Code Jam returns updated. This year the competition will be held in the new arena, developed by Google engineers, according to the new rules and, of course, with new interesting tasks. The 2008 Code Jam prize pool will be $ 80,000, ten of which will go to the winner. In addition, the first-place participant will receive a special prize - ten free meals at any of Google’s offices around the world!

Already registered? Then, in anticipation of the first qualifying rounds of Code Jam 2008, you can familiarize yourself with the trial tasks on the competition page . And we, the Google engineers, can only envy you - according to the rules of the competition, the participation of our company employees is prohibited.
