EVENT FORMAT FOR DEBUGGING (SMACK-D-BUG)

[INCORD HBTI]

Event Format

This is an On-Campus contest which puts forward a series of programs in C/C++ with very trivial and subtle errors (bugs). The participant would have to identify the bugs and debug the code to get the correct/appropriate output for all valid test cases. This would essentially be a test of the programming logic,conceptual and implementation skills of the participants in C/C++

The event will be conducted on 3 phases:

Round 1: (only for HBTI students)
Duration: 1 hour

1. This is a team event.
2. Each team comprises of 2 members and both should have and INCORD ID. Please visit the registration page if you do not have the INCORD ID yet.

4. For each correct answer +3 and a wrong answer will fetch -1 marks.

Phase 3: (finals on 4th March)
Duration: 2 hours
