The Quiwarriors
The Quiwarriors are the members of the Guild who are trained to compete in programming competitions. They receive training in graph theory, number theory, combinatorics, discrete mathematics and computational geometry among other topics. The Guild aims to keep producing the Philippines’ champions and win in the World Finals of the Association for Computing Machinery Intercollegiate Programming Contest (ACM ICPC), a world-renowned international programming competition.
The Quiwarriors trace their roots from the teams coached by Eric Tambasacan, then a faculty of the Department of Computer Science, for the 2007 and 2008 National Intercollegiate Programming Contests. The need for the skills of people outside of the department was apparent and so the idea for a university-wide organization was born. The first Guild teams competed in the 2009 Asia Regional ICPC – Manila Site, where the Guild’s team 1, “Mga SOGO ni E.T.”, placed 1st and became the first University of the Philippines Diliman team to advance to the World Finals.
The Guild is always on the look out for those who are eager to learn and who have a passion for problem solving.
