Programming competition problems as a basis for an algorithms and data structures course

This paper describes an algorithms and data structures course that uses ACM programming competition problems as the basis for the lectures, homework and exams. The course, designed and developed as part of a Fulbright Award, was delivered to students at The University of Leipzig in Leipzig, Germany during Winter Semester 2006/2007. The course is described, assessed and evaluated for future usage.
