[Cancelled] JuliaUserGroupMunich: Munich-Social on Google's Coding Competitions

Join us on :spiral_calendar: Thursday 27. October 2022 :clock630: 18:15 CEST
organized via meetup

This is the start of a new series: The Munich-Social series. We want to meet in-person and do some Julia stuff together.

With this JuliaUserGroupMunich has now three parallel series:

  • Share&Code, where speakers are invited
  • Fall-in-love-with-Julia, where I myself am presenting 101 introductions
  • :sparkles::new::sparkles: Munich-Social

Munich-Social: Google’s Coding Competitions with Julia
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Let’s use Julia on some well-prepared example problems. We want to take a grasp at Google’s Coding Competitions. That itself is fun, and maybe you yourself may one day win a position on a Google Competitions’ leaderboard :nerd_face:.

We will together solve some problems from the kickstart competitions. You may want to create an account at Kick Start - Google’s Coding Competitions, but it is not required as all competition information will be shared.

Thanks to Max Plank Institute for Physics we have some free food :pretzel: and drinks :beers:
:clock730: 19:45 - 21:30: Coding together - Solving a kickstart competition
This is like training for a competition, there is no real competition happening, so all is friendly and relaxed :slightly_smiling_face:

due to too few participants we need to cancel this event.

Another try is planned in the following weeks.

Sad to hear that it had to be cancelled - Munich is a bit too out-of-they-way for me sadly, else I would have loved to join :confused:
