HPE Code Wars: A coding tournament<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

HPE\u2019s charitable support in Houston includes HPE Code Wars, a highly anticipated annual computer programming competition for high school students. It was first hosted at the Hewlett Packard Houston campus in 1998.<\/p>\n

Today, many cities around the world host annual HPE Code Wars events. Students \u201clearn about problem solving, teamwork, and patience along with showcasing their coding skills,\u201d Pam Burleigh said.<\/p>\n

Burleigh, a product manager at HPE, has volunteered at HPE Code Wars and has seen the impact it\u2019s had on the participants.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m impressed with the talents of the many Houston and surrounding area high school-age young men and ladies that participate,\u201d Burleigh said. \u201cThis not only helps the Houston community by encouraging the high schoolers to consider coding in college and as a career later in life, it also impacts the world since HPE Code Wars is hosted in other countries, like India.\u201d<\/p>\n

Burleigh emphasized the lasting value of HPE Code Wars. \u201c[The students] learn about problem solving, teamwork, and patience along with showcasing their coding skills.\u201d<\/p>\n
