Hash Code is open to university\nstudents and industry professionals from all around globe. Participants must\ncompete in a group of two, three, or four members (each group referred to as a\n\u201cTeam\u201d).

Participants also get to watch a YouTube live-stream to be introduced to the problem, and the teams usually have four hours to solve an optimization problem using the programming language and tools of their choice.
