ICFP 2004 Programming Contest Results

Posted by timothy on from the smaller-bikinis dept.

jnagra writes "The results of the 2004 ICFP Programming Contest have been announced. First place is to a program in Haskell, second place is to a program in C++, and the judges' prize is to a program in OCaml. The ICFP contest is an annual contest to promote functional languages (although programs in any language are accepted) and bestows on the winners unlimited bragging rights."

    The contest really had little to do with the languages involved, since the judges never even ran the contestant's code!

    The judges just ran the output from the contestant's code through a simulator.
