Greetings from IICPC!

The IICPC camp began on June 2, 2024, with a vision to provide free resources and make competitive programming accessible to institutions across India. We are proudly sharing that we have had an incredible enrollment of over 12,000 students in the camp.

The camp has reached not only various parts of India but also several international participants, thanks to the Codeforces communities. IICPC is an initiative started by passionate students from India's premier engineering institutions, the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

The camp is headed and organized by:

  1. Ayush Kumar, IIT Madras

  2. Aditya Mishra, IIT Delhi

  3. Gaurish Baliga, KJSCE Mumbai

Our team includes some of the top competitive programmers in India, including: Queue, satyam343, MridulAhi, TyroWhizz, Chahel, akcube, mhtkrag, coder_supreme, shouryap, abhijain565aj, bananasaur, Proelectro444, shadow9236, itzzRaghav, sv1shan.

The camp is coming to a close, with the novice camp concluding on Monday, July 29, 2024, at 14:00 IST (GMT+5.5). The final lecture will be delivered by Shourya Pandey shouryap, IMO Bronze Medalist (2015), Master on CF with 10 contests, IIT Bombay CSE graduate, and currently pursuing a PhD in Theoretical CSE at UT Austin. The Math Number Theory lecture will be live on our official YouTube channel and will be conducted in English, so there are no language barriers.

This blog invites all competitive programming enthusiasts to participate in our contest on July 29, 2024, at 20:05 IST (GMT+5.5). This will be the second contest of IICPC, and the top 50-75 performers will advance to the final round. Prizes include Certificates of Excellence to all final round students and Participation Awards. Apart from these, there are special prizes for top 5 performers of Final Round.

We proudly thank our sponsors, 0xPPL and Algozenith, whose support has been crucial to the success of this camp.
