you might succeed or fail - if you fail you can learn from your error and understand the problem better the next time. Like everything else. Beside, everyone thinks successful persons are necessarily very smart in all kind of ways.
that's of course not true. it takes some smarts, yeah, some luck, some proper timing, and usually faith in yourself/ The smart part is probably a small one in fact.
- egor83 15y agotopcoder doesnt mean much its just a mind game TC is a place to learn and practice algorithm development skills, which is MUCH more than just a game. It's not necessary in any programming job, but there are places where this kind of knowledge is really needed - from what I know, Google is one of the examples. So if you like maths/algorithms, TC is a very useful place.
