Four students from Dalton demonstrated superior mathematical and computer programming skills and achieved very close second place honors at the 26th Annual High School Programming Contest, held on Monday, March 12, 2012 at Providence College in Providence, Ri.
The students were among 48 students from 13 high schools in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York who competed in four-person teams during the competition. Using personal computers and two designated computer programming languages, students wrote original programs that correctly solved complex, hypothetical math problems.
