CS50x Puzzle Day at Oxford

CS50x Puzzle Day at Oxford realiza-se a 6 de novembro de 2026, 1 Wellington Square, em Oxford.

CS50 is back in the United Kingdom! Join us at the University of Oxford on Friday, November 6, 2026, 5pm–10pm, for a CS50x Puzzle Day in collaboration with Oxford Lifelong Learning , with Professor David J. Malan from Harvard, Professor Daniel Wilson from Oxford, Professor Nicholas Day from Oxford, and Professor Tom Crawford from Oxford (and Cambridge and Tom Rocks Maths ). CS50x Puzzle Day is an opportunity to collaborate on teams of 2, 3, and 4 to solve a packet of puzzles (i.e., logic problems). Among the event’s goals is to send a message that computer science is more about problem-solving than it is about, say, programming. Puzzles are not programming challenges. No prior CS or programming experience needed, just logic and smarts! No team? No problem! We will help teams form at the event. Tickets on sale until 4pm on November 4, 2026 .

Difficult, Challenging, but most of all, Memorable! Extremely fun but mind boggling at the same time Great fun, and I think I even have a few non-grey hairs left! Had the best online experience of my life. Got a chance to get to know many people from different countries. Absolutely loved the experience. I can describe CS50 Puzzle Day in one word as Awesome. It’s just wonderful, I feel so confident after making new friends from other parts of the world, solving puzzles with them which improved my team coordinating skills. I have learned so much from the competition and my new friends and I would love to take part in this competition every year. It was a lot of fun and a great way to use your mind in a different way than you usually do day to day. It’s brainwreckingly good!
