The United States of America Computing Olympiad (USACO http://www.usaco.org ) is a computer programming competition for secondary school students in the United States. The USACO offers six competitions during the academic year for students at four increasingly difficult levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Participants in the USACO submit programs in one of five languages: C, C++, Java, Pascal, and Python. Participants advance through the levels by performing well in their current division.
This class goes through contest training materials, and mainly focus on USACO algorithm skills required by Silver to Gold level. It also help students starting to use C++ to solve the USACO problems, no mather what progrmming languages they have been learned so far.
The class will prepare students to start participating USACO Silver contests in the coming school year.
