Coding Arena is the first ever event in Technovanza online and is a tournament to truly test all you self confessed computer geeks. Coding Arena is pool of fourteen events, from various domains of Computers and IT. It primarily comprise of Software Development, Networking, Algorithms and Logic, Game Development, Graphical Aesthetics and Scripting. Our theme is to participate to learn and win ( though the latter seems more inviting). And from what I have heard there are a hell of a lot of prizes to be won by all the participants. As six of the fourteen events have already begun, I would like to talk about them in this blog.
Firstly I shall start about the event Gamming Programmer. In this event, contestants have to design an open source 2D/3D game development project with good gaming effect. They have to use languages like VC++, JAVA and Python. The participants have to submit their entries by the 7th of January and the top five best and coolest games will be displayed on one of the days of Technovanza’08.
Then there is the event Extreme Innovations where participants will have to build interesting miniature application which will have tremendous scope in the real word scenario. These scenarios include building a web page for a travel agency, a web based or desktop application for personal tax management or a web based interface which mimics the desktop computer system. Five to eight teams will be selected and they have to show their project on the stipulated day and a winning team will be chosen from an esteemed panel of judges. And the icing of the cake is that as you guys are developing open source applications, you may as well as sell your applications to interested companies and rake in the moolah.
The Web Demort event is a website designing event wherein the participants will be provided by a Case Study problem ranging from designing a website for a TV guide to a website for an international university. The qualifiers will then have to then design a website on site within a time slot of three hours. The participants will truly have to spin out all their ingenuity for this challenge.
Now this event Animatrix will surely test the artistic and imaginative skills of the contestants. All that required is a little bit of knowledge of animation and a whole lot of creativity, and you have aced this event. This is an online cum an on site event. The participants first have to create a sample clip and the best five will be selected for the next round. In the next round , the participants will have to produce a animated clip within two hours on site. The clip with the best appeal wins.
Debugging is the event in which the teams must correct all coding errors for Java, C++, python codes or bush script by modifying a minimum number of lines. Now you know how the compiler feels.
SSAD scenario: - This event is about the SSAD method which involves the application of a sequence of analysis, documentation and design tasks concerned with the following. And no hassles of coding!! It’s all about planning your system right and how!
