Registration for ACM@CMU's annual Algorithms with a Purpose competition is now open at www.awap2018.com. Register individually or as a team of up to 4.

Unlike usual programming competitions, AWAP does not have a "correct" solution. Instead, you are rewarded for having creative approaches and clever heuristics.

AWAP is a beginner-friendly competition and does not require any knowledge of complex algorithms; all you need is basic Python experience.

Algorithms with a Purpose (AWAP) is an annual student-run event held at Carnegie Mellon University. AWAP aims to expose algorithms to programmers of all experiences in a fun game-like scenario.
