Code never lies, comments sometimes do

Cells

We at Programming Club do not believe that a person is limited to just one field. Hence we have these three cells which promote and help to develop skills in their respective fields.

Donalds

Focus: Data structures and Algorithms.

Description: Competitive coding is the main agenda of meetups in this cell. Members of this cell know where to find all resources to enhance one’s competitive coding skills, how and where to practice, what to do in order to improve oneself at every stage in the vast field of algorithms.

What we do:

  1. Participate in almost all major competitive coding contests online.
  2. Participate in the international level coding olympics: the ACM ICPC.
  3. Organize DHPCs (Dark Hour Programming Contests) for regular practice.
  4. Conduct workshops and lectures regarding algorithms and data structures as required and requested by the students.

Assemblers

Focus: Software, Web, and Mobile Development.
