The kick off meeting will take place on Tuesday, April 8th, 2025 at 10:15h in room 2.050. Students interested in the Lab are asked to be present at this meeting.

If you are interested please write an email to Sarah Sturm so that we can estimate the number of participants.

There also is an eCampus site for this course, where the exercise sheets can be found.

The topic of the Lab is Competitive Programming. Competitive Programming is a conjunction of algorithmical problem solving and programming. We consider many problems from different areas, e.g., data structures, simple mathematical problems, graph theory or computational geometry, and you will implement programs that solve the problems. The implementations are automatically evaluated on our competitive programming server.

We support C++/Java/Python3, but for some tasks C++/Java is highly recommended.
