It's been a while since I've worked on a full time development project. But I love coding.. so how do I stay in touch with my inner developer? By participating in coding competitions!
These types of events typically challenge you by solving a difficult problem or delivering a solution in the least amount of time - or even in the least amount of characters of code.
In this fast-paced talk, I'll introduce you into the world of coding competitions. I'll talk about challenge types, approaches, strategy, the community aspect and I'll share a couple of examples from competitions and challenges I participated in. Join me and learn about the Joy of Coding Competitions!
