HP Announces CodeWars Events in California

This year the HP Roseville and Palo Alto sites will participate.

Each year over five hundred high school students fill the Hewlett Packard (HP), Houston campus, ready to put their programming skills to the test as they try to solve as many problems as possible in three hours. This year, HP is holding CodeWars competitions at eight sites in five countries.

Two years ago, the first satellite competition was launched at the Hewlett-Packard site in Roseville, Calif. This year both the HP Roseville and Palo Alto sites will participate. Students will compete in teams of three, using Python, Java, Javascript, C or C++ to solve 20 programming problems of varying difficulty.

Teachers can register their teams, with up to three people on each team, at the HP CodeWars website. Registration will open in mid-January and can fill up quickly.

For registration information, rules, and examples of past competitions, visit www.hpcodewars.org.
