Welcome to Competitive Programming at GT's beginner workshop! Our workshop serves as an introduction to competitive programming for students at GT.

Our first workshop is scheduled for two days: Saturday (9/21/2024) and Sunday (9/22/2024) from 1:30-5:30 PM in Klaus (KACB) 1456. We will cover everything from setting up your environment to basic algorithms, leading you on the path to becoming a seasoned competitive programmer!

This repository serves mainly as an aide for the asynchronous section of the beginner workshop. Once everyone has gotten their environment set up and gotten "hello world!" to display on their screen, we will move on to a code along, where we share some of the tips and tricks we wish we knew/had when we started solving.
