The Microsoft/UMD High School Programming Contest brings talented students from high schools throughout the DC metropolitan area to the campus to participate in a three hour competition. Students competing in teams of four demonstrate their programming skills and problem solving abilities by attempting to solve eight programming problems in C++.
The 1999 Contest was held on Saturday, March 13, 1999, at the University College Campus of the University of Maryland. Twenty-six teams from Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia competed. This year, Microsoft was our major sponsor.
