Question about CCC

-----------------------------------

Hi,
I was wondering that since Stage 1 of CCC is marked in school, is it necessary for the teacher at my school to know the language I'm using? Also, since books and written material are allowed, are we also allowed to bring in notes we made ourselves?
I'm new to the game here, hoping to write ccc this year xD

I believe that the teacher only marks for the execution (right result in a reasonable amount of time), not the quality of code. They just need to be able to run it. There might be sanity checks by Waterloo, should a student qualify for Stage 2.

I don't remember about the allowed material, and http://cemc.math.uwaterloo.ca/contests/computing/details.html doesn't say. Maybe someone else remembers?

If you want to practice for the contest, there's http://dwite.org/ We'll be posting the schedule in the next few days; there are monthly rounds in a format similar to CCC, but you submit solutions online and we get a computer to grade it right away ;)

The teacher has to quickly check the code to make sure it isn't:
[code]
cout
