CCC Junior Club
CCC Junior Club 2026-2027
A structured competitive programming program for students preparing for CCC Junior through Python, problem solving, and past contest practice.
Program Snapshot
From Python Fundamentals to Confident CCC Junior Problem Solvers — A Three-Phase Learning Journey.
Who This Class Is For
For Python learners ready for structured contest practice.
Python learners
Students who know some basics or are ready to build a stronger programming foundation.
Problem solvers
Students who enjoy puzzles, logic, patterns, and improving one solution step at a time.
CCC Junior candidates
Students aiming to understand the contest format and prepare with past CCC-style problems.
About CCC Junior
CCC Junior rewards clear logic, careful implementation, and steady problem solving.
Contest format
- 5 questions, 15 points each, 75 points total.
- Progressively harder problems from Q1 to Q5.
- Contest date is expected in February 2027, with the exact date to be confirmed by official CCC announcements.
Junior problem progression
- Q1-Q2: basic loops, conditions, and careful implementation.
- Q3-Q4: combined logic, counting, simulation, and structured testing.
- Q5: basic algorithms, recursion, grids, or efficient insight.
Learning Path
Three phases: Python foundations, core DSA, and CCC Junior practice.
Python Fundamentals
16 lessons during July and August.
- Variables, input/output, conditions, loops, functions, strings, lists, and debugging.
- Build clear coding habits before contest pressure begins.
Core DSA + Projects
14 lessons during September to December.
- Counting, simulation, searching, sorting, recursion, two-dimensional arrays, and project practice.
- Optional weekly lab sessions support implementation and debugging.
Past CCC Practice
6 lessons during January and February.
- Past CCC Junior problems, solution strategies, test cases, and contest habits.
- Focus on reading, planning, implementation, review, and confidence.
Schedule Plan
A clear rhythm from summer foundations to February contest preparation.
