What is Codathon

Apologies to anyone who gave the CODATHON Manipal competition due to my blog.
It is a very badly implemented system, difficult to navigate through.
Sometimes the code that has been pre-written to edit in, contains more errors, and I probably spent most of the first day's time looking for a fault in my code, while it was actually in theirs.
Questions are below the par, and the acceptance is probably at random, as the same code gets accepted sometimes and sometimes not.
Also if you lose connection in between and refresh, you lose all your progress for that attempt.

After this farce, Manipal should realize that, unless you know how to conduct a competition, and have people dedicated to it, you shouldn't actually try to run one.
