=== What’s GCI?

Google Code-in (GCI) is an annual programming competition hosted by Google Inc. that allows pre-university students to complete tasks specified by various, partnering open source organizations.The contest was originally the Google Highly Open Participation Contest, but in 2010, the format was modified into its current state.Students that complete tasks win certificates and T-shirts.Each organization also selects two grand prize award winners who will earn a trip to Google’s Headquarters located in Mountain View, California.
