When we started building HackerEarth, we had one mission on our minds–to help you become a better programmer. 4 years and a million users later, we feel we’re on our way to achieving what we set out to do.
Last year, we took another baby step towards our goal. We launched a new initiative called Code Monk–a weekly series of tutorials on all topics under Computer Science, combined with regular coding contests to test your understanding of the topics.
The reception was extraordinary!
23 topics. 27 weeks. 14,661 Participants. The energy we witnessed was simply unreal. Which is why, we’ve decided to come back with a bang.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, say hullo to Code Monk v2.0! It’s bigger, it’s better, and it’s even more fun than v1.0.
What is Code Monk?
Code Monk is a weekly series for anyone who wants to improve their programming skills.
Every week, you get access to detailed tutorials on topics like Basic Programming, Algorithms, Data Structures, and Maths.
Go through the tutorials through the week and improve your understanding of each topic. You’re gonna need it very soon!
At the end of each week, there is a programming contest to test your knowledge of each topic. For some topics, depending on their difficulty, you’ll have 2 weeks to prepare for the contest.
Do well in the contests and move up the leaderboard. Aim for the 1st spot and stand a chance to win exclusive t-shirts, vouchers, and other goodies in every week’s contest. What better a way to strengthen your programming concepts, right?
What’s new in Code Monk v2.0?
For this year’s Code Monk, just to make the competition a touch more exciting, we’ve introduced a twist. After every 4 or 5 weeks, you’ll be tested in a CheckPoint contest – a test that comprises all the topics that were covered in the past few weeks!
What should I learn before starting with Code Monk v2.0?
You need very basic knowledge of programming to start practicing on Code Monk. Just go through the following tutorials and topics and you’ll be all set to start learning and contesting.
