Project Euler

Some time ago I tried Project Euler. I only did some puzzles and forgot about it.

The other day I realized my profile went private because of a policy change on the site. Because of this, my profile image can’t be displayed anymore in other places such as my About Me section. It’s not clear what I have to do to get it back, but most probably everything will be fine if I’m active again for some time.

So I started working on it. First, I changed the internal structure. Now I have a script to check the Go linter, syntax, etc., another script that creates a template file for a new puzzle, a main.go file that lets you know what has been done and run the code you want, 3 folders (containing data, documentation, and my solutions), and a few more things. Unfortunately, I can’t share it because of the website’s policy that encourages people not to share their solutions in order to let people have the satisfaction of solving the problems by themselves.

Right now I have solved only 23 out of 989 problems (that is about 2.3%). And these are the easiest, so I don’t plan to finish them. Just have some fun.

Ranks have also changed. Now there are 6 geometrical figures that represent how good you are. The lowest one is the Tetrahedron with 23,318 members. As my account went private, I’m not even there, but this will be my first goal.

I have the feeling I will reach it once I have solved 25 problems.

Let’s see if I’m right ;)
