Overview

The Computer Science Department of the New Jersey Institute of Technology is proud to host the third annual, 2006 NJIT High School Programming Contest. The contest brings talented students from high schools throughout New Jersey to the NJIT campus to participate in a programming competition. Each high school can enter one team of up to 3 students. Each team will demonstrate their programming skills and problem-solving abilities by attempting to solve a number of programming problems. There is no cost to enter the contest.


Contest information

  • Contest rules
    Selected excerpts from the rules:
    • Submition: You can only submit one source code file for each problem, either in C++ or in JAVA.
    • Input/Output: Every program should expect two command line parameters (the name of an input file and the name of an output file). Detailed directions will be handed out at the contest.
    • During the contest, the computers will be running Microsoft Windows. Contestants may write programs in C++ and Java.  Microsoft Visual C++ version 6.0 will be available for C++ programming. Eclipse 3.0 or 3.1 will be available for Java programming and is recommended for JAVA. Sun J2SDK version 1.4.0_01 or newer (as a DOS command line program) will be used for processing Java programs under Windows. No other programming environment or language may be used.
  • Directions to NJIT
  • As a help in preparations, use problems from the 2005 NJIT Programming Contest. (Participants had 2.5 hours to solve the problems.)
