Oxford University Computing Challenge Training

This course is specifically designed to equip students with the skills needed to compete successfully. The course provides a comprehensive analysis of past competition papers to offer students tailored guidance and support. Furthermore, the program leverages the coding abilities developed in the previous data structure and algorithm course, with the aim of improving students' coding proficiency and boosting their confidence.

​

Entry requirement:

• The course is taught in small group (max 6).

• The minimal age to enroll is year 7.

• Prerequisites: Data Structure and Algorithms Essentials (Python)

• Submit the coursework before the deadline.

• The course duration is a minimum of 8 weeks

​

Goals:

At the end of the training course, students will have an in-depth understanding of the most commonly used algorithms in past coding competitions. The course aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the essential algorithms, including sorting, searching, graph traversal, dynamic programming, and others.

Overall, by gaining knowledge and experience with commonly used algorithms in coding competitions, students will be better prepared to tackle future coding challenges. They will be more adept at selecting the most appropriate algorithm for a given problem.
