I helped out at the All Ireland Programming Olympiad 2017 final round, the second-last qualifier to choose the Irish team for the IOI (this year in Tehran). Following this round, the top 8 competitors continue to a training camp and further competition to choose the 4-person team.
There were 8 problems were prepared; p1
-p4
were worth 50 points, and p5
-p8
were worth 100. Partial marks were awarded for solving a subset of the given test cases. Solutions could be submitted in C
, C++
, Python3.4
, Java
(I think Java8
, but suspect there would be problems), and I believe Pascal
too. While helping out during the competition, I got an hour or two to try some of the problems and submit to the ranking system. Here are my results, garnering 285 points.
Ádh mór leis an bhfoireann éireannach sa chomórtas, is cuma cé hiad!
