Which universities have the best coders in the world? (blog.hackerrank.com)

Purely 'coding' should be learned at vocational school (e.g. technician level), not university (e.g. scientist or engineer level).

"We thought it would be fairest to rank universities based on both number of participants and high scores."

Number of participants is a strange metric to define "best"

HR bloggers should learn humility. Their ranking is not worse than others, but it's not better either. I appreciate their input, but not the tone of the article.

Maybe in a lot of bigger universities, students do not find enough time to work on hackerrank. Maybe they already have meaningful projects they can contribute to. Maybe they already have access to good internships/jobs/career opportunities that spending time on hacker rank is not really useful.
