Thanks to everyone involved — participants and trainers — for a successful camp.
Dr. Shawn Tan, one of the trainers, wrote about the event on his column at Digital News Asia.
Background
The objective of this camp is to train students in C++ programming in preparation for the MCO 2014. MCO 2014 is an online C++ programming competition that will be the next selection process for the Malaysian national team to International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) 2014. The MCO will be held tentatively in April 2015.The training camp is open only to the individual Gold, Silver and Bronze medallists in MCC 2014. We would like to note that attending this camp is optional. Individual MCC 2013 medallists who decide not to attend this camp will still qualify for MCO 2014 if they fulfill all the requirements.
