Leaving to Brazil and ACM ICPC

Almost a month without writing :-)

Lately I've been a little busy: preparing to leave France and come back to Brazil, wrapping up some documentation for my internship, a couple of university assignments..

Speaking of which, this semester I am attending an elective course on "Programming Challenges" at UFRGS (my university). It is a very interesting lecture that prepares you for the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest. Each week we learn/revise problem solving techniques (algorithms, data structures, and so on) and we submit our answers for a set of problems to the University of Valladolid online judge. So far it has been challenging and very interesting. For those interested, I will keep posting my solutions on the code snippets website, under the acm tag.

A nice and fun week to all who read this :-)
