The Spring 2008 UCLA ACM Quarterly Programming Contest is now live!

This quarter's two winners will receive one of two Google USB flash drives. There are many ways to solve this one, but efficiency counts... Last quarter, a few contestants didn't interleave their output with each successive input case (we neglected to mention this, so we fixed your output code before judging); the Grading section of the Contest Rules has been updated to include this rule.

The deadline for submissions is 1 June 2008 at 11:59:59 PM.
