I am curious if project euler teaches you programming. I does teach you mathematics and thinking logically, but software engineering is different and is really learnt on the job. I am always confused when someone says about learning or teaching coding. What is meant by coding here? Writing fizzbuzz? Or writing enterprise software with so many levels in between and around as well.

Or the next Great American Novel?" It's possible to learn programming without getting into software engineering.

- jtwebman 11y agoMany aspects of programming like code readability, patterns, and abstractions could all be taught in a fun interactive way like these problems are done in. This site just focuses more on the math and logical thinking parts.
