Description

The initial round of ReidXtreme 5.0 was designed as an online competitive programming challenge, bringing together undergraduate teams to test their coding, algorithmic thinking, and problem-solving abilities. Participants were challenged to solve programming problems within a limited time, demonstrating their technical skills, logical reasoning, and teamwork. Organized by the IEEE Student Branch of UCSC in collaboration with the ACM Student Chapter of UCSC, the round served as the qualifying stage for the ReidXtreme 5.0 Grand Finale while preparing participants for IEEEXtreme 20.0.
