### About NCPC
44+
45+
NCPC is an annual 5 hour contest where your team is given 8-13 algorithmic problems to solve.
46+
47+
The problems vary greatly in difficulty, from beginner level to extremely hard.
48+
49+
Solve each problem by:
50+
- Writing a program in one of the [supported programming languages](https://open.kattis.com/help)
51+
- Test it locally on your computer with the sample test cases
52+
- Submit it to the online judge system [Kattis](https://open.kattis.com).
53+
- Wait for the results on the secret test cases.
54+
55+
Kattis will tell you if your program:
56+
- Was Correct (Accepted)
57+
- Produced the wrong output (Wrong Answer)
58+
- Ran too slow (Time Limit Exceeded)
59+
- Crashed (Run Time Error)
60+
61+
If you submit a program which is not correct, but you later in the contest solve the problem, you receive some penalty time for the incorrect attempt.
62+
63+
At LTH this contest is used as the qualifier for the regional contest [NWERC](https://www.nwerc.eu). The top student teams that are ICPC-eligible will advance to NWERC.
64+
65+
The contest was created in Lund in 1991 by Roy Andersson at the department of Computer Science at Lund University, and has since been organized yearly. In 1996 it became the Swedish Championships, and in 2011 it became the Nordic Championships. At [http://cs.lth.se/contest/](http://cs.lth.se/contest/) information, images and previous scoreboards are archived.

73+
- You may only use one computer.
74+
- You participate on your own computer - at LTH.
75+
- You are allowed you use the internet during the contest.
76+
- You are allowed to use pre written code in the contest.
77+
- You are not allowed to ask anyone outside your team for help. It is also forbidden to put up questions on forums or in chat groups.
78+
- Your team is ranked by the number of problems you solve, and then by penalty time.
79+

88+
89+
### Tips
90+
91+
If you have not previously participated in NCPC a great way to prepare is to have a look at the [problems from last year](https://ncpc21.kattis.com/problems). Solve the problems ordered by how many people solved them during the contest - marked by green on the [scoreboard](https://ncpc21.kattis.com/standings).
