You know, that feeling.. when you realise...... ur waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of your depth? :scratch: :pale:


No, you're not :) Most people could sit down and see the patterns in some - certainly for Fibonacci sequence, and therefore the problem may be being able to program it correctly... or efficiently.

The starter ones seem to rely heavily upon numbers that are too big for the normal int/long and require too much precision to use double etc :thumbr:

Others I can see and talk through how to solve without issue, it's putting it into code correctly that's a challenge (example, sum of the number of letters to say 1->1000 inclusive... I spelt forty incorrectly with a u, which gave me incorrect answers for a while :oops: Problem 24 I know how to solve it, I just haven't got it into code right yet and don't want to progress further until I do! Having said that yet, not made a concerted effort recently as work has piled up quickly :D).

Of course, as I progress further I'll undoubtedly fail to grasp the problems and therefore be unable to program solutions for them.
