Details
Google Hash Code Programming Challenge is a team-based programming competition organized by Google for students and industry professionals. You pick your team and programming language, Google picks a real-life engineering problem to solve.
For each round of the competition, Google will present a problem and your team will write a program that generates a solution. Your team can submit as many solutions as you’d like using the online Judge System, and a live scoreboard will let you know how you stack up against the competition.
