This was on webspace for some time already.

I can’t help it but to say, it’s an exaggerated picture.

If you’re following my side-notes updates, I provided a little coverage on the event.

We didn’t win anything. Main prizes were for the top 3 teams in the 2nd round. We didn’t qualify for the 2nd round.

Teams who didn’t win anything went home with a consolation prize.

Okay, maybe I’m just upset I wasn’t mentioned.

The competition was kinda fun. First round, a closed book session, we were given 6 programming questions to do. They had a palindrome question, a stopwatch, a date related question (input a date and return zodiac), a tower of Hanoi sort-of question, a question on storing employee data with sort insertion algorithms (basically linked list) and finally a drawing out a tree according to a user input (the concept of recursion).

Each question 10 points.

To be honest, I could only do 2 questions from here; stopwatch and the zodiac. I could nearly do the employees question but i forgotten how to do linked lists. I got all the logics in my head but no means to code it.

In the end, me and my partner, Isabella – R&D staff of APIIT completed 3.25 questions. She did the palindrome and recursion questions.

To qualify we needed minimum 50 points, in other words at least 5 questions completed. They announced the qualifiers of the second round after lunch – which was disappointing. But hey, didn’t pay anything. APIIT paid everything.

APIIT sent two teams, my team did 3.25 questions, another 2. I guess we win.

After the results were announced, we head to Melaka Town to look for the bus station. Took us some time to find it because the maps I had was quite outdated as all the old bus terminals shifted to a new huge terminal at Melaka Sentral. I headed down to Johor to meet my family.

PS: Never travel to 2 states in a day. TIRING.
