IBM Z Student Hackathon and Win $1,000

Hacker Earth is offering "IBM Z" Hackathon for students from all over the world. It is a thrilling contest that will combine the various skills you currently have or learned on the IBM Z Xplore learning platform.

During the contest, a series of code “Drops” will be released several days apart – each Drop is a technical challenge to explore test datasets, programmatically manipulate that data into a required output dataset, and perform a validation check for content and format. The complete solution will be an automatically executable sequence of scripts that can produce correct and complete output from a new set of compatible contest datasets.

USD 1,000
