Competing in computer programming: the successes of the CPPoliTO team

SWERC is a Competitive Programming contest held annually in Southwestern Europe, with teams from universities in France, Israel, Italy, Malta, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and, since this year, Andorra, Liechtenstein, San Marino and Vatican City. This competition serves as a qualifier for the most important International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC), the oldest and most prestigious world-wide Competitive Programming contest for university students, and European Championship (EUC), a new competition created for the best teams from all over Europe not qualified for ICPC.
Competitive Programming and it is the confrontation ground for computer science enthusiasts: a challenge by algorithms and codes, where the student who can solve, in the shortest time and with the best performance, mathematical problems of particular complexity wins.
The CPPoliTO Team participated this year with two teams, OverkillaTO, consisting of Federico Fortunati, Nima Naderi Ghotbodini, Mattia Longo, and Checkmate Coders, represented by Pasquale Bianco, Lorenzo Nikiforos, Antonio Spadaro.
