Solving problems from http://projecteuler.net/index.php?section=problems is my hobby. Currently I have almost zero time to do that. But when I have a spare minute and proper mood, I solve those using R6RS Scheme (currently with PLT). Scheme is chosen for several reasons. Most important, I want to improve my schemer-skills. One of the secondary reasons: the Scheme's numerical tower is capable of handling of virtually infinitely large numbers, so no reason to worry about numerical overflows. Those problems from projecteuler often require large numbers.

I also try to do quick-n-dirty performance and memory analysis. This is secondary, if it doesn't come fast, I go on. It's more interesting to dive into analytical aspects. Later I plan to automate measurements of speed, so it will be possible to check theoretical asymptotics.

To do: Here will be a table with information regarding solved exercises.

Problem + Link to projecteuler.net / Solution + Link to this blog	Theoretical speed asymptotics	Theoretical memory footprint	Comments
1. Find the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below 1000.			Sum of multiples of k numbers below n.
bruteforce	~ k * n	Θ(n)	Only sought numbers are in the memory
via LCM and inclusion-exclusion principle		~	Does not depend on n (good, as k << n)
LCM of k integers	?	~ k ?	Generic is not written yet, as GCD is also needed

To do: adding code snippets at mouse hover is a nice idea.
