Events

1. Cicada 3301: Cicada 3301 is an enigmatic and sophisticated puzzle series that emerged online in 2012, captivating the tech and cryptography communities. The event features a complex array of cryptographic challenges, steganographic clues, and historical references, inviting participants to solve intricate problems that blend mathematics, computer science, and literature. Its purpose remains elusive, with theories ranging from recruitment for a clandestine organization to a high-level intellectual challenge, making it a legendary and ongoing enigma in the realm of digital puzzles.


2. Python Puzzle Hunt: A Python Puzzle Hunt event is a unique and engaging competition that combines coding with problem-solving. Participants are challenged to solve a series of puzzles, each one designed to test their programming skills, logical thinking, and creativity. The puzzles are written in Python, or require Python knowledge to solve, making it an excellent opportunity for coders to apply their knowledge in a fun and interactive way.

3. Hit the Bug: Hit the Bug is a competitive coding event designed to test your debugging skills. Participants will be provided with a set of programming codes that contain intentional bugs. The challenge is to identify these bugs and either remove or comment them out to make the code functional. The event is a race against time and logic, where the quickest and most accurate bug-busters will emerge victorious. Whether you're a seasoned coder or a budding developer, "Hit The Bug" offers a thrilling opportunity to showcase your problem-solving prowess and attention to detail.
