The project moved to GitLab.
Septic (Server Environment for ProTab Informatics Contest) is a tool providing run time environment for computer science contests. The attendees solve tasks by writing a program in Python. The Python program is uploaded to a server (the expected mode of operation is the server providing a web based code editor) and run there in a sandboxed environment.
The task specifies what objects (functions, classes, ...) are exported to the sandboxed program and its maximum run time.
