Code Chaos
About The Event
Code Chaos is a two-stage programming challenge designed to evaluate precision, logic building, and debugging ability under time pressure. Participants must first demonstrate accuracy by writing flawless code without feedback, and then prove analytical strength by correcting and optimizing faulty logic.
On-Spot Registration & Certificate Notice
On-spot walk-in registration is available for Code Chaos at the campus registration desk on event day. Please note: Certificates for on-spot registrations will only be provided in digital format (E-Certificate).
Official Rules & Guidelines
Level 1 — Blind Coding on HackerRank (30 Minutes)
First round is system based on HackerRank. Solve a programming problem without any trial-and-error execution feedback. Worksheets provided for logic formulation.
- •Individual participation only on HackerRank.
- •A problem statement with input and output format will be provided.
- •Allowed programming languages: C, Python, Java.
- •Participants must type and submit the complete program.
- •Any runtime or compilation error results in elimination.
- •Participants who successfully execute the program or produce the closest correct output within time qualify for Level 2.
Level 2 — Hunt Debugging on HackerRank (30 Minutes)
Second round is also conducted on HackerRank. Identify and correct logical flaws in a given program to produce the targeted output.
- •A code containing logical flaws will be provided on HackerRank.
- •Participants must analyze, modify, and provide the mentioned output.
- •Multiple executions are allowed within the allotted time.
- •Difficulty level: Medium.
- •Ranking will be based on correctness of output, completion time, and logical accuracy.
General Guidelines
- Strictly individual event.
- No external assistance or internet usage allowed.
- Decisions of coordinators/judges will be final.
