Good day!
We have completed sending out the certificates last week. If you have not yet received yours, please follow these steps:
Check the Standings to confirm that your Total score is at least 1.
Review your Junk or Spam folders, as the certificate email might have been filtered there.
If you still cannot find it, please contact Olga Denisenko via mail for assistance.
It appears that some participants have not received their certificates yet, and we want to ensure everyone gets theirs.
Have a good day!

No team yet? No worries! 🙌
Fill out the teammate form, tell us a bit about your skills, and we’ll help you find a great match. It’s a fun way to meet new people, learn, and code together — even some of our DataArt colleagues are joining in! 💪

And one more. Some problems in Proggy-Buggy Contest may not have a solution — and that’s perfectly okay! If you believe a problem is undecidable, your task is simple: write a program that outputs "UNDECIDABLE" (in capital letters), and submit it.
How to solve Undecidable Problems
1. Read the problem carefully and decide whether it’s undecidable.
2. Write a Python program(for example) that outputs:
print ("UNDECIDABLE")
3. Save the code as a .py file.
4. Select Python as the language.
5. Upload your file.
6. Click Send to submit your solution.
7. You’ll see the status “Testing in progress”.
8. After a few seconds, click Refresh to see your result in the Summary section.

Today, the International Programming Proggy-Buggy Contest by DataArt brought together 684 teams from 37 countries.
This time we tried something new — the contest was open only to teams. But that didn’t stop anyone. Many of those who usually compete solo teamed up, created new groups, and quite a few of them ended up being international. It once again showed how open and global the Progi-Buggy community really is.
Teams had 42 minutes to solve 13 algorithmic problems. And, as always, Proggy-Buggy had its signature twist: some problems had no solution at all.
So it wasn’t just about coding fast — it was about spotting the traps and choosing the right strategy.
