"The Alan Turing Cryptography Competition is aimed at secondary school 
children in the UK up to Year 11 (England and Wales), S4 (Scotland), Year 
12 (Northern Ireland). You don't need to be a computer whizz or a 
mathematical genius — you just need to keep your wits about you and be 
good at solving problems!"

Although based around ciphers and cryptography, the competition presents 
the questions as puzzles and may be of interest to some here. It has just 
started, so Chapter 1 is available now.
