What is Coding Practice with Kick Start? Kick Start’s beginner-friendly practice session provides you the chance to try out our Googler-created problems without the pressure of a timed round or scoreboard. Only you can see your results. To get you started, we provide starter code in several coding languages to help you frame your solution and Google engineers available to answer any questions. At the end of the week, join us for the problem walkthrough livestream on Tuesday, August 30 at 8:00 AM PT / 11:00 AM ET, where Google engineers will walk you through detailed problem solutions.

This session is for you if you are: new to competitive programming looking to boost your skills before the next Kick Start round eager to learn something new interested in connecting with a global community
