MathWorks kicked off its 2010 Fall MATLAB Online Programming Contest, challenging MATLAB users to solve a navigation problem. The contest, titled “Sailing Home,” runs from November 10–17.
The contest is meant to foster collaboration in engineering and science by encouraging participants to build on and borrow from the code written by fellow competitors. All participants have access to the code entered in the contest, making it easy to share ideas. As a result, participants have the opportunity to learn techniques from their peers for programming in MATLAB and writing more effective code.
MathWorks is leveraging social networking platforms, including MATLAB Central, throughout the contest so that participants can discuss their solutions and strategies globally with peers.
Visit mathworks.com/matlabcentral/contest to register for the “Sailing Home” MATLAB Online Programming Contest.
