- How to get started training at the USACO Gateway:
- What is it like to attend the USACO training camp?
- http://www.quora.com/USA-Computing-Olym ... ining-camp
- It's only a week
- New people just get 3 hours of lab/lecture in the morning
- The top guys do a contest every day. Sometimes the contest goes until after lunch, otherwise they just review after lunch. (Seems like 5 hrs/day)
- Then everyone has fun for the rest of the day
- If one is stuck on a particular section, is it worthwhile to keep on trying to solve the given problem, or should one move on to other sources in preparation for programming contests?
- Richard Peng, one of the most successful Canadian IOI competitors of all time, on the USACO training pages:
- "USACO training was put together before the major IOI escalation (Finland/Korea/Wisconsin). A lot of the techniques described on it are no longer useful on *OI and a lot of the 'hot' topics over the past few years are not covered. Also, a lot of the bottle necks on training are quite meaningless, and they typically cause a lot of frustration and time waste on the scale of months."
