If anyone said they were software developers, or are taking the courses in college. Or even have a passion for coding on the side.

http://projecteuler.net/index.php

I have been going to this site for a while just answering the problems in my downtime between projects, at home on slow days, and sometimes as a challenge between friends and myself.

Maybe you guys might find it interesting.

C++ is not a requirement here. The users are encouraged to code in any language they please. I do all my work in C++ but I have a friend who does the questions in C# and another in python. An old teacher of mine in college showed me this site. He is still a member and works on all the problems in assembly.

Wow.

I don't know much past very basic programming, but this looks fairly fun.

A lot more fun than the shit I was supposed to do in school.

Problems Solved: 48 out of 297
(2 more until next level)

Pretty cool way to work on your programming skills. A lot of them are just knowing the right way to do something, or data structure to use, but then you learn how to implement it to solve something!

We used Turing to learn programming... I feel that I have learned useful coding skills.

I heard about Project Euler a long time ago but never started. I might give some of the challenges when I go back to school next semester, I can't bring myself to do much computer-related stuff when I get home from work now after being on a PC for 8-9 hours already.
