Well it's simply because codeforces was created 5 years ago and tourist was 15 back then. I'm sure he was as good as a grandmaster in codeforces when he was 12 ;)

Codeforces Beta Round 1 was in 2010 so he was at least 16. yutaka1999 was probably 15 when he became red in Zepto Code Rush 2014.

Edit: just found that .o. achieved it at 14 (source).

Btw, if you will examine this: http://codeforces.com/comments/with/Swistakk then you will see that among my many last comments I used it only in previous comment, one time ":pp" and 42 times ":P", so your algorithms is getting WA on almost all existing testcases :P.

And about RetiredAmrMahmoud question (which is completely irrelevant to your answer) — I think that person with a good experience in math contests will reach red fast:) Learning how to write a code sounds easier than learning how to solve problems.

I started participating in programming contests in February, 2011 and became GM on my twentieth birthday, 19.11.2013. That's about two years and nine months.

But this result may be unfair, because I first tried to write some code in 2005, that was JASS, a programming language for writing scripts for Warcraft 3.

So we already concluded from this subject that becoming red in primary school is no problem. What about youngest international grandmaster?

I do not know exact their exact birth dates (nor even approximate in most cases), but I guess few good examples of young IGMs are here: tourist (surprisingly :P), yeputons, jqdai0815, YuukaKazami, scott_wu, PavelKunyavskiy, jcvb, Alex_2oo8. Can someone tell how old were they when they became IGMs?

I was 17 during Codeforces Round 136 (Div. 1), when I first became IGM. I oscillated between GM and IGM for some time. My last change to IGM was year after (Codeforces Round 198 (Div. 1)), in 2013, when I was 18.
