[Winner's Stories]

"I remember when I was in junior school, taking pictures with the medals brought by other students from International Olympiads and dreaming that one day I would bring them too"
Roman Yanushevskyi
"The most interesting are difficult problems when I am not sure that I will be able to solve it. Even if I sit on it for half an hour, it is not a fact that I will solve it - then the interest only grows."

This is an Olympiad in solving algorithmic problems with the help of a computer. Participants need to write solutions in programming languages (C++, Python, etc.). Solutions are checked by a computer without human influence. Examples of such problems are available on Eolymp.
Do not confuse the Olympiad in Informatics with the IT Olympiad.
There are three main Olympiads of the national level, which are held every year.
The Ukrainian Olympiad in Informatics, which is organized by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. This Olympiad has four stages: school, district, regional, and national. All schoolchildren of Ukraine can take part in this Olympiad. You can register for the Olympiad through a school computer science teacher.
The Ukrainian Junior and Girls' Olympiads in Informatics are two Olympiads that are held simultaneously and organized by the Federation of Olympiad Programming. Schoolchildren who were not yet 15 years old on December 31 of the corresponding academic year can take part in the Junior Olympiad. All girls studying in Ukrainian schools can take part in the Girls' Olympiad. Registration is via the website.
Ukraine participates in many international Olympiads. The most popular among them are:
The International Olympiad in Informatics is the oldest Olympiad in Informatics, which was launched in 1989. The Olympiad usually attracts about 300 participants from 90 countries. In order to get to this Olympiad, you need to participate in the All-Ukrainian Olympiad in Informatics.
The European Girls' Olympiad in Informatics is an Olympiad for girls, which was launched in 2021. About 200 participants from 50 countries participate in the Olympiad. In order to get to this Olympiad, you need to participate in the All-Ukrainian Girls' Olympiad in Informatics.
The European Junior Olympiad in Informatics is an Olympiad for juniors (under 15 years old), which was launched in 2017. About 100 participants from 25 countries take part in the Olympiad. In order to get to this Olympiad, you need to take part in the All-Ukrainian Junior Olympiad in Informatics.
It is imperative to know a programming language. It is highly recommended to know C++ because it is the only language supported at the International Olympiad in Informatics. Python is also a fairly popular language.
In addition to knowing the language, you also need to know algorithms. You can learn them, for example, by reading books about algorithms (for example, “Introduction to Algorithms”). The cp-algorithms web resource is also quite popular.
It is very useful to solve problems from previous years, which can be found on the Eolymp system, which is used at most Ukrainian Olympiads in Informatics.
It may also be useful to find a coach for Olympiad programming.First of all, it develops the ability to program and quickly solve problems, which will then make it easier to find a job in the IT field.
Participants of the International Olympiad in Informatics receive 200 points in two competitive subjects chosen by the entrant upon admission (as of 2024). Victories in the Olympiads can have a positive impact on admission to foreign universities.
Participation in the Olympiads gives you the opportunity to visit other cities in Ukraine, and even other countries.
