learning a new language looks like an easy job, in most cases. All the
language's keywords and stuff, you can shuffle that into your head in a
weekend or so. But what it makes it a hard task is all the idioms. It
takes a long time to learn them. I like your approach of hacking random
algorithms, like happynumbers and friends, (everyone does it to learn a
new language I think) and show them for criticism (not everyone does
that).
