CODERA — IT technical event at Invente '26IT

CODERA

Competitive Programming


Codera is a two-round competitive programming event that pushes you from raw algorithmic speed to adaptive problem-solving. In the first round, teams race against the clock in an ICPC-style contest, tackling 4–5 problems of increasing difficulty under strict time and penalty pressure. Only top performing teams advance to Round 2, where the same coding and DSA fundamentals get put through a completely different test — a surprise challenge built to see how your team thinks, adapts and works together when the format itself becomes the puzzle. Codera rewards those who can code fast, think faster, and adapt when the rules of the game suddenly change.

About the event

LLM Showdown is a 2-round event of wit, strategy, and AI prompting inspired by Codenames. Two teams compete to guide ChatGPT toward their secret target word without ever revealing it directly. Players must craft clever, indirect prompts while avoiding the target word and all its derivatives. Every response becomes a test of deduction, deception, and prompt-engineering skill.
