One member shares their involvement in a CTF Marathon with Securinets\, leading to a deeper discussion of problem-solving strategies.\n\nAdam expl ains two key problems—the Chess Knight Problem\, the Fibonacci Sequence and Days between two dates—providing insights into various approaches to solving them. After the explanations\, participants are given tasks to so lve the problems independently\, encouraging hands-on practice.\n\nIn the final part of the workshop\, Adam reviews each participant’s code\, prov iding constructive feedback and corrections to help them refine their appr oach. The workshop concludes with a summary of key learning points and par ticipant feedback.\n\nThis workshop helps IEEE members hone their skills i n preparation for high-level coding competitions while fostering teamwork and problem-solving capabilities.\n\nAgenda: \n-\nWelcome and Introduction \n\n- Adam Sfar introduces himself and opens the session.\n- Icebreaker: A sking if anyone has previous experience with hackathons or competitions su ch as IEEEXtreme.\n\n-\nDiscussion on Competitions\n\n- A member shares th eir experience participating in a CTF Marathon with Securinets.\n\n-\nProb lem 1: Chess Knight Problem\n\n- Explanation of the Chess Knight Problem: Logic\, approach\, and problem-solving methods.\n\n-\nProblem 2: Fibonacci Sequence\n\n- Explanation of the Fibonacci Sequence: Recursive and iterat ive methods\, optimization tips.\n\n-\nTask Assignment\n\n- Participants a re tasked with solving the three problems discussed during the session:\n- Chess Knight Problem\n- Fibonacci Sequence\n- Additional challenge based on the session’s theme.\n\n-\nCode Review and Discussion\n\n- Each parti cipant presents their solution.\n- Adam reviews\, discusses\, and corrects the submitted codes.\n\n-\nConclusion and Feedback\n\n- Final remarks fro m Adam\, summarizing key points.\n- Feedback from participants.\n\nVirtual : https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/439324 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/439324 ORGANIZER:sbc.esprit.cs@ieee.org SEQUENCE:10 SUMMARY:IEEE DAY Problem Solving Workshop URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/439324 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .3 pt\; line-height: 110%\;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic'\,sans -serif\; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\;">This problem-solving workshop\, hoste d by <strong>Adam Sfar</strong> as part of the <strong>IEEE Day celebratio ns</strong>\, aims to enhance participants' coding and problem-solving ski lls in preparation for competitions like <strong>IEEEXtreme</strong>.</spa n></p>\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .3pt\; line-height: 110 %\;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic'\,sans-serif\; mso-ansi-lan guage: EN-US\;">The workshop begins with a brief introduction\, followed b y an interactive session where Adam asks about participants' experience in coding competitions.
