Project Euler

[Ian Curtis]

So, the other day I was stumbling and ran into this excellent waste of time. It's a series of math/programming problems, which get increasingly more difficult, although you're free to solve them in any order. Some of the early ones can be solved easily with a for loop, looking, or a good old friend named Excel. Later ones, I have no idea even how to begin.

Great find! I can forsee myself wasting err spending many hours doing all of these! Combining my two foremost passions... mathematics and programming.

That sounds interesting. How many have people solved?

[whitetiger0990]

I haven't played with it in awhile (and they've since taken to adding a problem per week, and actually just stopped doing that for the summer), but I've solved 52 problems (using perl)

=)

Dang it, and I thought I was going to be productive.

I've solved 13 since I saw you post it here. Thank You Python.

[tennispro9911]

Haha, yeah I solved 17 of them since I saw the post about it.

[tennispro9911]

This thing has me hooked. 30 now solved.

Owwwwwwwww...

My brain hurts.......

[whitetiger0990]

Oh geez tennispro9911, don't you have anything else to do over the summer? =P

I need to do some more. >_>

[tennispro9911]

Haha, the bad part is I do have stuff to do right now, that I've been working on some. I have my grad party tomorrow, a meeting to discuss a possible custom two-speed transmission prototype over the summer that I've been pushing. I put together a powerpoint for that yesterday, and my graduation ceremony is saturday which I've been working on my speech for. I have spent too much time on that site though. Thats for sure.

You have quite a large chunk done yourself:
