The Code@Nest Team Programming Challenge 2026 is an in‑person coding contest hosted by the School of Computing and the O(CP) Club. Modeled after well‑known competitions such as the ICPC, this event gives students the chance to demonstrate their problem‑solving and programming skills in a fast‑paced environment. FIS sponsors award prizes.

This contest is open to current UNF students who have not yet completed COP 3530: Data Structures. All participants will use lab computers to solve the problems.

Teams will tackle 8 programming problems of varying difficulty within a 3‑hour window. Teams must consist of two or three members; one‑member teams are not permitted, as this is a team‑based programming contest. Each team will be assigned exactly one computer for the duration of the contest.

Internet use, including AI chatbots and search engines, is not allowed. Teams may bring books, notes, and scratch paper. A browser may be used only to access the DOMJudge system.
