What are the possible problems Google poses to programmers in a competition with C# language? ☺

Depending on what you want the competition to be like, I would suggest 3 different scenarios: [A] programmers can use any resources (Google, textbook, etc.). [B] Programmers cannot use the internet, but they can use any resources included in the IDE (documentation, debug error messages, etc.). [C] Programmers have to create their code in a text document (no resources). If the competition is for beginner learners of C#, scenario C might be good to test their knowledge of syntax. For advanced programmers, I wouldn't expect them to know every single detail about syntax, especially if they have been working with multiple programming languages; however, they should know how to use a wide variety of programming concepts and problem solve a solution. For simpler projects, I would avoid internet access because the programmers could just look up the entire code. But if the problem is complex or has multiple paths to a solution, then I feel Google would be safe. And with Scenarios B and C, the competition would need to take place in a controlled environment to ensure that everyone follows the rules, and this would also mean that there would have to be a time limit. With Scenario A, the restrictions wouldn't be necessary, allowing for longer competitions and bigger projects.

Hmm... I just started with challenges and at the moment I'm quite low so it's still easy to increase my XPs a lot... So, I'll probably stick with them for a while... 😎

I won 20 half a year ago and then made a break. Started last weekend again... To much stress for me if I would do it every day. 😎 OK, compared to your 2 wins I'm pretty experienced... 😇
