Competed with the biggest Colleges and Universities, the code warriors stood tall as they bravely attacked the programming problems and won most of them.
According to their coach, Mr. Julius Yves Battung, “all the programming problems require analytical thinking. To solve each problem, contestants must have an adept understanding in manipulating multi-dimensional array. Mastery in algorithm is a must for every contestant and the students were able to perform that.”
Dr. Elizabeth D. Ramos (Dean of College of Business and Management of St. Paul University Manila), said in her message, “the fact that each of the participants was selected among the many students in their respective schools to compete in such I.T. event, made them already a winner.” It was actually an opportunity for everybody to represent their schools and expose their brilliant minds to different schools.
