Almost 17 for me. Have started to learn algorithm for half year and started to work on ACM seriously for less than a week

(was picking few stupid problems to solve before that)
Solved 50 problems so far...
Solved 70 problems on another judge.....

I'm 17 too (what a coincedence!).

I'm only a newbie here in ACM; my ID here is 3XXXX!

I've solved more than 100 problems.

Nice way to get a lot of replies... I am 20, and joined acm.uva.es a week back.

I'm 20, moved to NYC, USA from HK.. only started (any type of algo) a year ago, sad thing too, because now I'm so behind everybody.. (though I'm up to 300 right now..)

I'm 18 this year. I joined this site in Jan 2003 and solved 101 probs.
Notes : I first introduced to these stuff (algo and programming) in Sept 2002, still a baby (one year)

Hi Folks,

I'm 37 ... and I wouldn't have posted my age if "little joey" wouldn't have.
I've solved 7 problems since Jan 2003 (and have contributed 1).

I would like to express my deep respect towards anybody who has honestly solved hundreds or even beyond 1000! Wow! That is a "level" (rate) way beyond mine.

"Solving problems" in general seems to be somewhere in my genes and that is why I had to find ACM. I have an interesting full-time job in the field of embedded control, but as the career of an engineer goes (or maybe as our "time" is changing in general) the fascinating aspects of problem solving, algorithm finding and "neat" things like that are decreasing - that's why I try to find time for ACM problems (besides my job and my family). I keep my brain "sharp" that way and there's always something to learn on the way.

Yours, Eric
