I began Project Euler as a way to exercise my problem solving skills in a way that was exciting and interesting. When I first began teaching myself Python, I used Project Euler problems to help me learn. I unfortunately do not have all of my solutions available as Python files (I have most), but the ones I do have and future solutions will be added here.
- I have currently solved 19/618 problems.
- 16.876% of members have solved at least 19 problems.

[From the website] Project Euler is a series of challenging mathematical/computer programming problems that will require more than just mathematical insights to solve. Although mathematics will help you arrive at elegant and efficient methods, the use of a computer and programming skills will be required to solve most problems.
The motivation for starting Project Euler, and its continuation, is to provide a platform for the inquiring mind to delve into unfamiliar areas and learn new concepts in a fun and recreational context.
The intended audience include students for whom the basic curriculum is not feeding their hunger to learn, adults whose background was not primarily mathematics but had an interest in things mathematical, and professionals who want to keep their problem solving and mathematics on the cutting edge.
