... This was the 2007 ACM international programing competition... only 1 college department was able to do all 8 (MIT was only able to do 7 I think)... some of these look pretty easy but some look a bit more challenging... How many do you think you could do?

Had a quick scan through, and it baffled me. If I sat and read it properly, instead of looking at the pictures and tables, I might've had a clue what it was on about!

I'm useless at programming competitions.

And ACM ones are impossible.

I just took a look at it and thought... "What a load of gonads".

hey steve

maybe you can tie each gonad
onto a sheep and have the sheep look up
as your squadron of kama(karma ) kazi squad
of RC planes dive into the sheep for a sweet explosive
barbecue and tasty spicy smoldering baked bits
of gonad. yummy!!

cheers

That sounds painfull.

But not as painful as reading those challenges.

The reading of them and the information contained
therein was so stale, so aridly dry, and so dull...
No wonder a lot of people didn't complete the challenges
They were put to sleep!
