Hackerrank Contest: A contest for debugging
By wanbo, history, 9 years ago, In English

Hello Codeforces community!

I am glad to announce that HackerRank’ SegFault Contest will be held on 28th June 2015 at 12:00 AM CST. You can sign up for the contest here.

Unlike our usual coding contests, this time you have to review code and find bugs faster than others! Allowed languages are C, C++, Java and Python. Though what's priceless is solving interesting problems and the thrill of competition, prizes make the competition fierce. Top 10 performers will get a HackerRank T-shirt.

Good luck and have fun!

Have no idea how the participants are ordered in the leaderboard. Are they sorted only by the amount of points or are there any additional tiebreakers like total time spent / number of successful submissions / last successful submission?

Won't this contest affect the user contest graph and rating?

    I guess it won't.

    BTW, it would be nice to see such information somewhere at contest/registration page for every upcoming event)
