Overview: ELUCode is a fast-paced 2-hour competitive coding contest by EduLinkUp designed to challenge your problem-solving ability, algorithmic thinking, and coding speed. The contest brings together students and developers from across the community to compete on a set of carefully curated problems ranging from logical puzzles to algorithmic challenges. Participants will face multiple problems of varying difficulty levels, testing their understanding of data structures, algorithms, logic building, and efficient coding practices. Whether you are a beginner exploring competitive programming or an experienced coder looking to sharpen your skills, ELUCode provides a platform to learn, compete, and showcase your abilities. Top performers will be recognised through special achievement badges and certificates within the EduLinkUp ecosystem.
Scoring: Each challenge carries a predefined score, based on its difficulty level. A participant’s score for a challenge depends on the number of test cases successfully passed by their submission. Submissions are automatically evaluated against hidden and visible test cases to ensure correctness and efficiency. The overall leaderboard is determined by the total score obtained across all challenges. If two or more participants achieve the same score, the tie will be broken based on the sum of time of the first correct solution for all the problems. The participant who reaches the score earlier will rank higher.
