Mathethon
A Mathethon is a computational mathematics competition that is primarily focused on Computer-Based Math, computer-based math in contrast to math competitions that use scientific calculators or Handwriting, handwritten only. Mathethons are analogous to hackathons for computer programming competitions. They can very in academic difficulty from elementary competitions, middle school, high school, and college level mathematics. They can be held in person individually, as a group, or hosted virtually online.https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/List_of_United_States_high_school_mathematics_competitions?srsltid=AfmBOoq_1HMV9qU7y9QaHDm0EDNkjCM_tGkKWmdW5PAztz2eWO3mC5a6 Competition categories * Algorithm, Algorithmic problem solving * Biomathematics * Computational informatics * Computational physics * Computational mechanics#Mathematics, Computational mechanics * Computational science * Computational statistics * Cryptography * Data mining * Discrete mathematics * Machine lear ...

Hackathon
A hackathon (also known as a hack day, hackfest, datathon or codefest; a portmanteau of '' hacking'' and ''marathon'') is an event where people engage in rapid and collaborative engineering over a relatively short period of time such as 24 or 48 hours. They are often run using agile software development practices, such as sprint-like design wherein computer programmers and others involved in software development, including graphic designers, interface designers, product managers, domain experts, and others collaborate intensively on engineering projects, such as software engineering. The goal of a hackathon is to create functioning software or hardware by the end of the event. Hackathons tend to have a specific focus, which can include the programming language used, the operating system, an application, an API, or the subject and the demographic group of the programmers. In other cases, there is no restriction on the type of software being created or the design of the new syst ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
