I want to ask what ACM competitions are: I am a computer major in Chongqing, and I want to participate in some ACM competitions, but I don't know which ACM competitions are available in Chongqing.

Programming competition for college students

Introduction to ACM

ACM (Computing Machinery Association) was founded in the second year of the birth of computers. It is the oldest and most authoritative organization in the field of computer science, and it is the main force to promote information technology professionals and students to improve their skills. ACM provides services to its 75,000 members around the world by providing cutting-edge technical information and transforming from theory to practice, and has become the basic information source in the field of information technology. Acm International College Programming Competition sponsored by ACM (ACM/ICPC for short).

It has been held for 28 consecutive sessions since 1977. Its purpose is to provide an excellent opportunity for college students to show their ability to analyze and solve problems to the IT community, and to become an effective way for the next generation of IT geniuses to obtain all kinds of software that will be used in their future work. Since 1998, IBM became a sponsor of the competition, the scale of the competition has been expanding. Last year, 14 12 universities in 75 countries sent 3 150 teams to participate in the 1 14 regional competition, among which 73 teams participated in the world finals held in Prague in March this year. Now, ACM/ICPC has become the most influential international computer competition among college students all over the world.
