🎶 Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon… 🎶
You come and go, you come and go…
Sorry! Wrong Culture Club—this isn’t a Boy George sing-along...yet.
I know it’s been a while, but I’m back in black with another exciting recap of our Khan Academy Programming Contest winners! This time, the theme was Culture, and let me tell you, the results are more epic than a Don't Stop Believin' performance.
But why, you ask?
Why do we put our contestants under pressure? We do it to highlight our awesome Computer Science community.
Here’s the deal: Every two months, our Challenge Council cranks out a themed coding party. Last time, we dove into an “Anatomy” contest. One contestant even coded a plant cell that was seriously awesome—there was nothing “tainted” about it.
I’m starting to hear the unmistakable opening chords of Purple Rain, which can only mean one thing: It’s time to announce the winners!
