i just read the project site and one of the things they say on their front page is that all problems have a solution that should run in "under a minute". the emphasis is on finding the right algorithm, not brute force number crunching. so i am not sure that speed is of much importance at all. > In other words, which Python libraries and tools to you use to help > you solve Project Euler problems :-) ? you may want to look at numpy and scipy, but looking at the first dozen questions i think ordinary python may be sufficient. andrew -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
