about the first challenge... - 2007-03-20 20:08:55

what's the purpose or the lesson behind the first challenge? About that face value thing, could anyone tell me on its relation or relevance in programming. I had fun solving that problem and can't wait to solve the following ones. Thanks and more power!

I'd say its a great way to warm the ole brain up and get you thinking in a more unconventional manner. I'll admit that I looked at the page source, started to wiki face value before I stopped and went "Ooooohhh..". =P
