About this opportunity

A set of small programming puzzles released one a day each December, solvable in any programming language, running every year since 2015. You need only a little programming knowledge and problem-solving skill to start, and the puzzles get harder as the days go on. There is no global leaderboard any more, but you can set up a private leaderboard to race classmates or your school's computing club.

Who can apply
