UVic computer science student Dan Sanders came out on top at the BC Winter Programming Competition hosted by SFU last month. There were 52 teams competing in the three-hour program including high school students from the lower mainland, university students from Alberta, and students from UVic, UBC and SFU. The seven UVic students placed 1, 11, 18, 20, 30, 45 and 52. Sanders came in first place in the entire competition solving all six questions. Jennifer Debroni (computer science) came in 11th place after solving five of the six questions. Scott Porter (computer science) came in 18th place, and Brodie Roberts (computer science) came in at 20th place, both with four problems solved. More info: www.cs.sfu.ca/news/events/ACM/scoreboard/
