The Entelect Challenge IITPSA Hackathon held on the 25th of March from 10am to 3pm was an exciting event that brought together some of the brightest minds in the IITPSA. The Entelect Challenge team hosted from the JHB and CPT offices, and various homes
Participants were tasked with solving an optimization problem by generating an algorithm that could best run a kind of marathon. The algorithm needed to choose the best combination of 5 different trainers, like feet or Nikes, each more suited to a specific terrain type than the other, to achieve the highest speed and most steps for 4 tracks of increasing difficulty.
The participation was over 200% higher than last year, and we had some talented people participating. The results are currently being verified and will be announced as soon as possible.
Looking forward to the rest of the year!
