26 July 2005

Search giant Google has opened registrations for its Google Code Jam 2005 competition.

The annual event consists of a series of problem-solving challenges that invite participants to select a programming language and use their programming skills to code solutions.

Alan Eustace, vice president of engineering at Google, said: " The Google Code Jam celebrates some of the best work in problem solving from the fastest and most talented computer scientists in the world. Google is proud to support their amazing talents and provide opportunities to consider joining our research and development offices in Brazil, China, Japan, Europe, India, or elsewhere."

Programmers interested in competing in the Code Jam can register at www.topcoder.com/googlecodejam and the qualification rounds begin on August 22nd. One hundred finalists will be invited to compete in the Championship Round to be held at Google headquarters in Mountain View, California, on September 23rd 2005.

The Google Code Jam is powered by TopCoder and last year the competition attracted more than 7,500 participants from more than 100 countries, with Sergio Sancho of Buenos Aires, Argentina, emerging as the winner.
