Hi there,

You are reading this page, so you've already gone a long way towards good preparation of MT tasks. Nice work! There are only a couple of things before you could start your first tasks:

  • how to get a CodEx account
  • how to login to CodEx
  • how to pick a task to solve
  • how to submit a solution for evaluation

You heard the word *CodEx* (Code Exercise: http://codex3.ms.mff.cuni.cz/). As you might know, all the MT tasks are designed in CodEx system. This page serves as a guide for newcomers who has little to no experience with CodEx.

How to get a CodEx account

First of all, you have to get a CodEx account. There are two ways that you could obtain an account in CodEx

For CUNI students

Please access the SIS registration page: https://codex3.ms.mff.cuni.cz/codex-trans/?module=sisregistration. You will be asked to verify your account, then click *verify*. If everything is fine, you could proceed to create your own account.
