Hello Codeforces!
One of the most memorable Kotlin rounds of this year took place just recently. More than 6.7 thousand participants have registered for it. We thank everyone for your interest in Kotlin! Everyone who took part in this round will receive a link to download a personalized online certificate within the next two weeks. Work on this has already started.
Our warm congratulations to the winners of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, who receive cash prizes:
A Kotlin Heroes t-shirt and exclusive Kotlin stickers will be presented to:
And also these participants won branded T-shirts:
Finally, the last, but not least, gift for today: ICPC-experience, an invitation to the Moscow World Finals 2021, all-inclusive on-site (hotel, meals, ceremonies, and swag, are included; visa, flights, transportation to the contest location is not).
And a special recognition prize from the ICPC goes to tourist.
If you are still new to Kotlin you could look into a tutorial on competitive programming in Kotlin and watch these videos on competitive programming in Kotlin. Also, all the previous Kotlin Heroes Rounds are available for practice here: Episode 1, Episode 2, Episode 3, Episode 4 and Episode 5: ICPC Round.
We wish you all the best and hope you enjoy Kotlin.
What are the benefits of using Kotlin for competitive programming?
Thanks so much for catching that, fixed the link. Please check out the tutorial and the videos to learn more about the advantages of Kotlin for competitive programming. In short, it's safe, concise and expressive, great for algorithmic problem solving, as many primitives are already there in the standard library.
Thank you so much for the t-shirt! This is my very first time i win something. Can't really tell you how happy i am now
Our pleasure! Thank you for taking part in Kotlin Heroes :)
What about Electronic Certificates?
I thought I'd get a T-shirt :(
ICPC Experience to Moscow World Finalis only for one person?
Yes, this was a prize for the winner.
