Last fall I was coder on the UMD team at two area programming contests, and loved it. I wish we could have done more. We won first place at DigiKey DKC3 2005, and took first at our location in the ACM regional competition.

Anyway, because we were the first team at UMD in a long time, we were asked to throw something together explaining what we learned:

• How to {win|do well in} a Programming Contest

So, I’m posting it here for those interested, and also for Google to pick up the link.
