So I don't get it, what's the point of all this? Like, are we just given challenges to solve and solve them in our desired language?

Seems cool. Based off of the Previous Challenges though, I doubt it'll be anything too difficult. Which is nice for student programmers, and makes it easier to get both challenges for each round done fairly quickly. Just the previous ones are kind of ridiculously easy, lol.
