IEEExtreme is an international 24-hour programming competition that takes place annually, organized by IEEE in countries around the world. In the event, teams of IEEE student members – advised and proctored by an IEEE member, and often supported by an IEEE student branch – compete to solve a set of programming problems within the allotted 24 hours.
