Collaborative Resources

Not currently using ldap, the username is etherpad and the password has something to do with hacking

Git

If you want to learn how to use git, try the tutorial at try.github.com If you wish to be a collaberator on the above repo, email Relative.Prime at the gmails. You don't have to be an official collaborator though - feel free to clone the above and send a pull request to have your code merged.

GIT NOTES:

Naming conventions: Since there are many people with code for the same Euler problem, a naming convention such as euler27_yourname.py might be good.

Committing Broken Code Is Okay: This is a learning exercise. If you commit broken code, fine - in fact go for it. That way others can see it and offer suggestions, and the group (and you) can see how your code evolved through the commit history. If you never commit anything but the final, working, optimized version there is no history available to discuss, share and learn from. Don't break someone else' code (or they will git blame you!). Just use your own file as above, and commit away.
