None in my team knew how to do File IO Confused

It made you loop smarter? As in you were able to more efficiently determine which code should be repeated?

I beat all the all the grade 11s and 10s (im grade 11) and got 4th. We had 3rd up untill the end, and were almost done that stupid rabit one (It should have taken like 5 minutes, but it was worded wierd...) someone submited right at the end and beat us by TWO points! >< So we lost third =P

Im the only one on me team who knows anything. My team, not one of then knows how to use a regular array...They bugged the hell out of me. "Whats this, why are you doing that. Loops dont work like that". One guy kept stabbing me with a pen, and I threw him out of the room. Next year im going by myself.

The guy who one at our board, yes the SINGLE guy, no team, got all four questions. He scored like 450. Almost as good as Rob Flack (sp?). Rob Flack is a legend in our district, im not sure how well known he is though =D We called this guy mini-flack

anybody mind posting the problems?

I'm not sure if each school board received the same questions (which is most likely the case), but there are still school boards that haven't written the contest yet. So please refrain from discussing or posting the questions until April.

I think its not same for every board if it is on different days.
@Flikerator: The legend I have seen is Simon Parent. Holy smokes that guy is a crazy programmer.
