Hi!↵
↵
I'm a member of the ACM-ICPC community of my university. As this semester started, new students came to our university.↵
The community of ACM-ICPC at my university is quite small. Consequently, we (me and my teammates) decided to advertise these competitions to newcomers and try to attract them. We're mainly focused on ACM-ICPC. I think that most people that are doing competitive programming, are doing it because they find it fun and also they enjoy solving problems (sounds true for me). Now I was looking for some advice on how to actually introduce competitive programming to a person that may have never tried it before. Any opinions on how to attract people to CPisare welcomed. Here's are mine : ↵
↵
- Explain the joy ofproblem-solvingsolving problems (of course that would be hard if they have never done it before).↵
-Show themMention the benefits of being a competitive programmer (e.g. it will be easy to pass coding interviews).↵
-TryIt worth giving a try! (actually, the whole post is about this!)↵
↵
But here is the problem. I don't think that these "reasonings" attract people. So what to do?
