Sign up today for Hash Code 2017!
January 13, 2017
Calling all developers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa: our programming competition
Hash Code
is back for its fourth year of challenging programmers to solve a real Google engineering problem. Think you could
optimize the layout of a Google Data Center
? Or how about
scheduling a fleet of drones
to make deliveries around the world? If you’re up for the challenge, sign up to compete today at
g.co/hashcode
.
Hash Code 2017 kicks off on 23rd February with the Online Qualification Round. The top 50 teams from this round will then be invited to
Google Paris
, in the City of Light, to battle it out for the coveted title of Hash Code 2017 Champion.
52 teams from 22 countries competed side-by-side during the
Hash Code 2016 Final Round
at Google Paris
To make things even more exciting, students and professionals across the region are signing up to host Hash Code
hubs
where local teams can come together to compete for the Online Qualification Round. So far, more than 250 hubs are being organized across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Participating from a hub is a great way to meet new people and add a little extra fun and competition to the contest.
Don’t see a hub near you
? You can still
sign up to host a hub
in your university, office or city on our website.
Whether you’ve just started coding or you’re a programming competition aficionado, Hash Code is a great chance to flex your programming muscles, get a glimpse into software engineering at Google and have some fun. Take a look at
previous Hash Code problem statements
to see the engineering challenges participants have tackled in the past.
Teams compete in the 2016 Online Qualification Round from a Hash Code
hub
We can’t reveal this year’s problem statements, but we will have some other fun announcements leading up to the Online Qualification Round. Keep in touch with Hash Code by joining our
Google+ community
and
Facebook event
.
Are you up for the challenge? Sign up today at
g.co/hashcode
and we’ll see you online on 23rd February!
