HackerRank's CodeStorm CodeSprint

Compete with programmers across the globe.
Win prizes. Land your dream job.

More importantly, learn a lot and have a lot of fun!

CodeStorm is an online coding competition that remains open for 24 hours. It is open to all countries and to both students and working professionals. It starts October 29th, 16:00 UTC.

This CodeSprint is just one step in a larger, more exhilarating path. Whether it's your first step or your four hundredth, you'll go farthest with practice, teamwork and passion Vicki

Code for fun and Code for joy @zimpha

Be dedicated and passionate. Don't demotivate yourself after some small failures @nfssdq

The key to success is failing at the right time. Failing is inevitable, but if you fail at the right time (e.g., while practicing), then you can learn by your mistakes, and do them less often in crucial moments like in a contest @gdisastery

It's difficult to excel if you do not enjoy programming. Adrenaline while submitting a problem and seeing those green checks is a fun feeling @hash_include

The impact you can have as a programmer is huge, as what you create can not just change your life, but lives of millions of others. Coding is probably the fastest way to change the world Rashika

Don't give up easily on a problem, because the struggle is where you learn the most @zeulb

There will be times when you'll not perform well. Dont give up, keep participating and keep challenging yourself @amitsaharana

If you're a beginner - practice with your friends, read blogs of top programmers, solve easy challenges and improve with regular practice @apiadu
