Romanian Olympiad in Informatics
The Romanian Olympiad in Informatics (Romanian: Olimpiada Națională de Informatică, ONI) is an annual competitive programming contest for secondary school students in Romania. It gathers about 300 high-school students (9th to 12th grade) and about 160 gymnasium students (5th to 8th grade).[1]
The contest takes place over two days, in sessions of 3–5 hours each, and consists of providing computationally efficient solutions to one to four problems of an algorithmic nature. Contestants compete individually. To participate, students must first qualify within their school, then town/city, then county. At the end of the Olympiad, a special contest further selects the top ~20 students for the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI). Since 1990, Romanian students have won 32 gold medals at the IOI, ranking the country #4 worldwide.[2]
History[edit]
The first Romanian Olympiad in Informatics was held in 1978 and consisted of a hand-written portion, and a computer portion, the latter giving a choice of programming language among Fortran, COBOL and ASSIRIS.[1]
