The 17th edition of the annual IEEExtreme programming competition was held on Oct. 28th, 2023.
IEEEXtreme is a worldwide computer coding competition open exclusively to IEEE Student Members. Nearly 17,000 IEEE Students registered this year, which represents a 16% growth over last year’s record-setting registration. This represents over 12% of the total IEEE Student Membership!
The challenging competition, which consists of several programming problems or “tasks”, runs over the course of one 24 hour period. The competition attracted student teams from around the world, including 55 from Region 7 (Canada).
7 student teams from the B.C. mainland competed, and turned in impressive results!
