For those of you who didn't know already, ProjectEuler.net is a set of problems with increasing difficulty that will sharpen your math and programming skills.

I’m finding it a very nice way to learn a new programming language.

Oh man, math student here. I used to program a lot but since I started math I have been too busy. But I have really been wanting to get back into the practice of writing computer algorithms and wanted to learn sage at the same time.

Doing this seems like the perfect way to do that.

And some days the problems just make me want to stab my eyes out.

Have to say - as a non-math person, I am really digging this. For some of these I actually feel as though I am learning some math - others I am just honing my coding chops, but that ain't a bad thing. Thank for the pointer, really digging it.

I'm using this to teach myself Haskell. Well, technically I read the first few chapters of Learn You a Haskell and Real World Haskell, but I find doing is much harder and more interesting than reading.
