Love in mathematics

Are you passionate about Mathematics and programming ? Like to play with numbers and find the magic in them? if so, soon you will be addictive to Project Euler, a must site for mathematics lovers.

What is Project Euler?

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.

How to use Project Euler:

Just Register with Project Euler website, and you are ready to sink in maths.

After successful registration and login, you are greeted with 252 problems(Number of problems might change as new problems are added frequently.

Solutions to some of the problems can be get by paper and pen applying simple mathematics formula learned at school. Some can be solved only with advanced mathematics upon a lot of thinking thinking thinking and writing algorithms but most of then requires some programming in your favorite language.

When you got the solution, you can enter the answer there and check whether you are right or not? If you are right, particular problem will be shifted to ‘solved problems’ sections and you are ranked +1.  And score board will show the levels of all users based on the number of problems solved. The more problems solved -> more score -> more respect at forum.

And, if you solve the problem, then only you will be able to see the forum for that particular problem, where all other share their code and mathematical formula they used to solve the problem.

A Problem from Project Euler:

problem 2 project euler

and if you cant solve the problem…??? Project Euler says…

Please do not contact Project Euler if you are unable to solve a particular problem. If you can’t solve it, then you can’t solve it!

Dont worry! I try to post solutions to problems here on my blog.

so, Happy Mathematics.
