Online Programming Contest (Python solutions accepted) + Amazon offer

[Sridhar]

Hi,

We, the students of CEG, Anna University [1] are organizing an online
programming contest as part of aBaCus [2] 2005.  The contest itself
will start on 6th March 2005 at 1:00 pm IST [3] and will end after 5
hours.  You have to solve the problems posted at the start of the
contest.  Teams ranking high will be awared the prizes.

As a special note, inspite of C,C++ and Java we also allow Python [4]
this time.  So we hope a lot of Pythonistas also could attend the
contest for fun. :-)

Top performers would be considered to join the 'Circle of Innovation'
at Amazon India [5]. You may also have a chance to be considered for
Internships/Externships/Work at Amazon India!
