Day 1
Workshop 1 – Techonovation
This In-Hand workshop included about 40 members who had each separately attended. The participants had received a hands-on lesson in which they learned how to use Python and the PyGame module to make a straightforward Tic-Tac-Toe game. During the hands-on session, the minimax algorithm’s use in creating the game was described.
Workshop 2 – Monopoly
There had been about 20 people in this workshop separately. Terms like CTC, In Hand Salary, Income Tax, Heads of Income, and how to file an ITR were briefly explained to the participants. A concrete example of the distinction between CTC and their In-Hand Salary was given to the group. The training also aided in their understanding of the various sorts of taxes that exist and how they function.
Day 2
Round 1 – Contrive
Individually, there had been 36 individuals, and there had been a maximum group size of 2. The participants were to use a list of terms connected to technology and fun to construct a coherent story within the allotted time. The story was to include every word that had been given to the participant.
Round 2 – Paradox
Twelve teams had been selected for Round 2 out of the 36 participants in the First Round. The teams had to play with the provided balloons and balance them using their heads. Then they were required to respond to the questions provided by the club members, and they were instructed to do so in a manner that was completely unrelated to the subject.
Round 3 – Sus & Sell
From the Round 2, five teams were chosen for the Round 3. When the teams correctly identified the thing that was concealed in the box, they were given the go ahead to guess what it was.
