LIT consists of two separate rounds: **Standard** and **CTF**. Teams may participate and win prizes in both. The Standard round is similar to USACO and CodeForces, where you are given 8 algorithm problems and 3 hours to solve, with difficulties ranging from D3 to D1. The CTF round will rely on contestants’ knowledge of computer security and general problem-solving skills to complete challenges and locate a "flag" for each.↵
↵
Participants may form **teams of up to 3 members**! Everyone is welcome to participate in the contest regardless of nationality and age. However, only those currently in middle school or high school are eligible for winning prizes.↵

**Awards**↵

While we currently do not have the complete list of prizes yet, our current prize pool is worth more than **$4000!** In addition, all top **50 participants** will be able to receive a [Wolfram|Alpha Notebook Edition](https://www.wolfram.com/wolfram-alpha-notebook-edition/), each valued at $72.↵
