Note:Look for the new, updated contest timing at the end of the blog!.

Hello Codeforces community!

I am glad to announce Hack The Code , a contest where you hack the problem setter's solution to a given problem by providing any test case on which it would fail, similar to the system of Codeforces.

The contest will be held on April 3rd, 2018 at 15:30 UTC on HackerRank.
Contest link: Click
The contest is part of Euristica, IIT Indore's inaugural programming fest sponsored by Arcesium.

The problem setters of this contest are AakashHanda, 7dan, killer_bee, Ashutosh_Bang, rohitranjan017, gi_sha, amandal799 and dc99 .
The contest will have 15 problems. The problem setter's solutions are written in C++.
The first successful hack on any problem will give you one point.
Beware, each unsuccessful hack will give you a 20 minute penalty!

The prize distribution is as follows:
- First: ₹5000 - Second: ₹3000

If you love hacking solutions on codeforces (I sure do :) ), then you will enjoy this contest for sure!

See you on the leaderboard!

Update 1: Due to clash with CF #473, the event has been moved to April 5th, 2018 at 15:30 UTC. Update your calender!
