I'm trying to think of super quick speed coding challenges that can be done in less than 2 minutes.
The idea, is that it's like a timed quiz. Like those timed Multiplication tests they might have made you do in school. Where you start a timer and solve as many problems as you can before time runs out.
I'd like a handful, where the coder is tasked with trying to code a solution in under 2 minutes.
Preferably things that can be done in most common languages. However JavaScript and Python may be the choice for this project.

I remember there is this game called "You can't JavaScript Under Pressure"
I can't find it on the internet now but that was a fun coding game.
That's a great lead! And also just an interesting sounding game. Thanks!
It seems the game has been removed from the internet but you can still find lots of articles talking about it. :) Good luck!
Yeah the articles give me enough clues I can derive some challanges!
I had the students do something similar on my programming class mentorship. One of the challenges was Print an hourglass with asteristic.
Ooo good one! Thanks!
Multiplying two numbers using only sums and recursion was another issue that I had the students solve.
This one I really like because it's scalable. Different numbers mean different solutions.
