間眅埶AV competes in the Regional ACM Programming Competition
On November 11, three teams from 間眅埶AV competed in the Regional ACM Programming Competition. 65 teams from universities and colleges in B.C., Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Alaska and Hawaii entered the contest, the top two of which would qualify for the World Finals in Tokyo, Japan.
間眅埶AV Red (Adi Himawan, Simon Lo, Nhan Nguyen) had a slow start, but had a surge in the middle of the contest (solving 6 problems in the space of 70 minutes) to join the pack of frontrunners in 7th position. They solved no more problems, however, and ultimately finished 13th, an excellent showing in a tough field dominated by UBC and Stanford.
間眅埶AV Blue (Bo Chen, Daryl Van Humbeck, Carrie Wang) and 間眅埶AV White (Marcel Guzman, Gary Lo, Jean-Francois Eap) started fast out of the gate with 3 problems each, hovering around 15th place for most of the day. 間眅埶AV Blue finished 6 problems for 20th place; 間眅埶AV White finished 5 problems for 26th.
Congratulations and back-patting should be conveyed to all participants- they did a fine job this year!
