Final Results for UKSPC'01 and a few pictures (September 28, 2001)



 


Graduate and undergraduate students competed in two divisions: twenty one students in the upper division and forteen students in the lower division. The students were given seven problems of varying difficulty with different problems  selected for different divisions (the problems from the contest will be posted later). Judging was based on the ACM programming competition rules.  By rules the correct output must not only be valid  but also has to precisely meet the specified  format. There were many instances of students submitting solutions that were rejected merely because of a presentation error (e.g., output listed in wrong order, etc.).  The final ranking is based on the number of problems accepted as correct solutions meeting the above criteria and  by the total time (see the scoring rules), including penalties for incorrect submissions.
