Competitive programming is a popular event for programmers and students alike that tests and sharpens the competitor’s knowledge and skill on mathematics and computer programming, and introduces aspiring computer performer  or computer master / computer geeks to the world.

Competitive programming is similar to quiz contests. Here a team or individual is given a number of mathematical and logical problems to solve using any programming language allowed by the host.
