Hello All,

This Wednesday we will be running a "Core War" evening. This programming game pits players against each other building and refining programs to battle over control of a virtual computer.

No experience needed, but familiarising yourself with the basics beforehand may be useful. A good beginners guide can be found here http://vyznev.net/corewar/guide.html. Bring your own laptop.

Geek Night https://www.facebook.com/events/1592592304387050/ will be on this Saturday.

Kind regards,

Matthew
