Hi elmonkey, Have a look at:
<http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:Nim> here you can see, how common problems are solved with Nim. Then also: <http://ssalewski.de/nimprogramming.html> A book about Nim. Make sure to also read the manual and tutorials from miran's link. Another good advice is to just read others code, so you'll get familiar with the style Nim is usually written.
