bah, sorry for poor grammar. I forgot there is no edit or delete

Numerical simulations content suggestion.
Depending on time, I would like to do it at some point but just
in case, i'll leave it here. I think people from scientific
community would agree. I'm also for problem specific approach
that can be deconstructed into tools rather than giving people
tools. basically, a high school student should be able to
figure out everything from starting an editor to getting an eps
of gnuplot.
1. sample uses on clusters mpi or new hpx. monte-carlo
calculation of an area of a circle.
2. numerical recipies covers a lot of common problems in
science. it would be a nice guide on what to include. (giving
reference to the book of course). it should also be used to
show a correct style of programming.
3. wolfram mathematica, matlab and sage already did a good job
of finding and documenting showcases of popular numerical
computations.

web interface:
it would be nice to see the same tutorial for different
paradigms of programming -- click a button for functional or
for object oriented and so on. figuring out paradigms was the
hardest part for me in learning c++.
