The 2010 Edition of the High School Programming Contest was hosted by the School of Computing on Tuesday, 30 March. Teams of up to four students each from the area’s high schools attempted to solve four challenging programming problems in three hours. The event was organized with the cooperation of the Limestone District School Board and the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board, and as part of the Educational Computing Organization of Ontario’s annual Computer Programming Contests series.
Congratulations to the team from Frontenac Secondary School who were the winners this year.
Many thanks to Dean McKeown and Lynda Moulton for their help with the logistics, to Scott Grant, Sharief Oteafy, and Doug Wightman who assisted with the technical details, and principally to Richard Linley who was instrumental in bringing the contest to Queen’s, and who orchestrated the entire event from start to success.
