techgig is cool man.
YOu win movie tickets :)
It's just like codechef but more competitive. You can't view solutions of ongoing problems but the previous problems have all the solutions..

Have you tried codechef long and short contests. The level of competition is top notch over there not to mention the overseas awesome coders who take part in it.


+1 to SPOJ and projecteuler

^ It takes some time to get around with those kinds of questions. A good approach can be to start solving by sorting the questions by most users solved.

yes that is what I had in mind.. I will start with it

I just had a quick look to codechef and I have same opinion.. their questions are little confusing. on other hand EUler is much simplier.. maybe after couple months of practing I will start with codechef too
