Code Electro Run
IEEE BIT Student Branch conducted an event named "Code Electro RUN" on 15th May, 2024. The event could accommodate both Circuital and IT branch students with Soldering for Circuital branch students and Coding Relay for IT branch students. They had to form a team of 3 members each. The event tested not only their team spirit and coding/soldering skills but also tested their speed and accuracy.
The response was overwhelming and the number of registered teams were 21 for soldering and 12 for coding. The event was conducted smoothly and winners were chosen based on their time and output.
In Round 1 of the coding relay, teams were tasked with identifying three missing lines in a provided code snippet, which is accompanied by the expected output. Alongside this challenge, teams must complete a Google Form containing multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions. They have 20 minutes to work collaboratively without any hints or clues. The first seven teams to accurately complete the task with the highest scores moved on to the next round.
Round 2 involved a relay-style coding challenge where a problem statement is given to the first member of each team. Each team member worked on the code for 8 minutes before passing it to the next member. This process continued until all members have contributed, totaling 40 minutes. The objective was to achieve the correct output using a consistent approach throughout the relay. In the event of a tie, the team with the shortest and cleanest code wins.
For soldering relay students had to form a team of 3 members each. The event tested not only their team spirit and soldering skills but also tested their speed and accuracy. Initially one of the team member would start soldering the components according to the circuit provided for 15 minutes. After which the second team member would start off from where the previous team-mate left off for another 15 minutes. The same was repeated for intervals of 10 minutes for a total time of 1 hour.
The team with an accurately functioning circuit, neat and compact soldering design would be awarded as the winners followed by the runners. The circuit provided was basic "Break Failure Indicator Circuit" to allow student from any year to be able to participate keeping a common level of difficulty throughout.
Overall the event was a great success with a large number of registrations and extremely positive feedback from the participants.
