ECE 220 hosts a C programming competition at the end of each semester for all students! The competition will test your knowledge on any of the concepts covered over the course of the semester. The first handful of participants that correctly complete all the problems will be awarded certificates (first, second and third place & a few honorable mentions). Furthermore, award recipients will have their names permanently displayed on the course website.
This competition will also serve as an opportunity for mock-exam.
This semester's programming competition was held on 05/01. We had about 40 participants who battled it out over six challenging tasks. The ECE 220 team thanks everyone who participated in the competition and congratulates the winners of the Fall 2023 Programming Competition:
Bryce Mikos
Charles Pei
Jake Ashpole
Honorable mentions are also due: Richard Xu and Jefferson Zhang. A big shout out to Mike Montano for organizing this year’s competition.
