Project Euler Forum

Great thanks to the project maintainers. This is a great resource, both of challenges and of different approaches. I'm teaching myself Lisp and would love to be able to view just the Lisp solutions to problems I've already solved. I've walked through the comments for the first problem and learned a lot from the Lisp code left by others. I'd like to hear others' comments on this idea.

Thx,

Then you might miss out on those posts where the solver gave a clear description of how he proceeded to develop an efficient algo, instead of listing his code which may have no meaning for 99% of the participants.

As a relatively recent participant in Project Euler, I must confess that I am a bit overwhelmed when I arrive in the forum for a project and find there are 26 pages of comments (as in the case of Problem 1 at the writing of this). While I recognize there are many excellent posts explaining the process (rather than merely the code) to solve the problem and I find them valuable to read, I do not review all of the pages in the comments due to the sheer number of them. I would find it helpful to be able to view only those posts from other programmers using my same language, in my case Ruby.

As a secondary and supporting point, there are some techniques specific to certain languages that might be applicable to the given problem and it would be nice to be able to peruse all of the code posted in the comments by language to look for someone using these techniques.

I am enjoying Project Euler a great deal and I believe that filtering by language would greatly enhance my experience further analyzing the problem after posting my original solution. I have done some database and PHP work and I would be happy to volunteer to assist in these changes if it is decided to implement them.

Thank you for providing an entertaining and productive way for me to spend time.
