It's a programming competition meeting ACM-ICPC (International Collegiate Programming Competition) standards, where teams are challenged with 10 problems and must answer as many as possible within a five-hour timeframe.

The interesting thing about this competition is that it's conducted online. All participants must hold activities on campus, but the organizers will determine the start and end times. At each university, a lecturer is assigned to monitor each participant to prevent cheating or collusion between participants.

"Most of our competitors are from India. The best team is also from IIT Delhi," said Dikra. The total prize for the first, second, and third place winners is Rs 90,000. In addition to the attractive prizes, this competition is also the first APC ever held. In an interview with the news agency, the team is proud to have participated in an international competition like this and can bring honor to ITB's name on the international stage. They hope to continue to achieve other brilliant achievements both at the national and international levels. "We will continue to try our best to become champions," said Dikra, who is also the Chairman of HMIF.
