The new season of the most elite private programming contest in Bulgaria CodeIT 2017/2018 will launch on Friday, October 13th at 20:00h. The contest has been held since 2000, and after 2008 has always been under the patronage of the President of the Republic of Bulgaria.

There are not any changes to the rules, terms and conditions of the contest. The new season will have six online rounds (three “Marathon” and three “Sprint”) and a final round in Sofia for the best contestants. The website of CodeIT is updated, active and ready for the beginning of the challenge. There you can also find the new symbol of CodeIT – the little fox who is known to everyone with its cunning and the ability to quickly find a solution in every situation.

The first round of CodeIT will be a marathon and will last for three weeks. The contestants will have to solve one problem and will have the option to modify and upgrade their solution during the whole round.

What to expect in CodeIT season 2017/2018:

·       New more reliable and faster evaluating system.

·       Every positive result will bring a T-shirt to the contestant with our new foxy image.

·       A random participant in every round with a positive result will get a sweatshirt.

·       The participants will receive more gifts provided by the sponsors of CodeIT.

·       At the final round in Sofia the best contestants will meet a popular IT guru – Ivan Katanich from Croatia, who has himself participated in and won medals from many international programming contests. He has been a trainee at Facebook, MemSQL and Jane Street. Katanich belongs to the competitive programming society for many years now and still takes part in contests in his free time. Also, he prepares the team of Croatia for international Olympiads and programming contests and works on the tasks.

The 12 contestants with best results will get to the final round of CodeIT 2017/2018, which will take place in Sofia ending with an award ceremony which traditionally (since 2008) is under the patronage of the President of the Republic of Bulgaria. Honorary chairman of the jury of the contest and also a patron of the first round will be Prof. Krassimir Manev, President of the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) 2014-2017 and President of the European Junior Olympiad in Informatics (eJOI).
