Why CEMC contests matter Attempting contest problems boosts students' confidence and self-esteem, motivating them to pursue further challenges. Since CEMC contests are created at different levels of difficulty, engaging in these contests can spark an interest in mathematics and computer science
Calculating devices are allowed, provided that they do not have any of the following features: internet access, the ability to communicate with other devices, information previously stored by students (such as formulas, programs, notes, etc.), a computer algebra system, dynamic geometry software
, While calculators may be used for numerical calculations, other mathematical steps must be shown and justified in your written solutions and specific marks may be allocated for these steps. For example, while your calculator might be able to find the x-intercepts of the graph of an equation like y =
