I haven't tried it, however it looks interesting. I might give it a shot. What do you use to do it? Just any programming language?

You can use any programming language you want; hell, some people use Excel spreadsheets, or solve the problems using pencil and paper. To get an answer "right", you just have to submit an answer to the problem. (They're all math-focused, so the answers are usually just a number.) I personally use Python, Haskell, and Erlang, in that order; Python because I know it best, Haskell because many of the problems can be easily solved using language features found in Haskell, and Erlang because it's almost like Haskell but easier to use. |

I guess I could take a crack at it. Some of these problems are really odd, and I don't even understand what they're asking me to do. Others are extremely easy. I'd probably end up using vbs, javascript, java, or as3 to solve them. Python is probably one of the best languages you can use. From what I hear it's extremely fast. *hopes built-in functions will help him as well* |
